I've never liked running and when I tried again to take it up in 2019 I got knee injuries pretty much straight away (linked to my back issue, linked to having one leg shorter than the other, I'm a physical write-off tbh) so sacked it off and stuck to cycling.
Currently just walking every day, my working day doesn't (officially) start until 10:00 so after dropping the kids off at school I have time to go for a 45 minute walk. Having HR / distance / pace makes it quite different now. It's definitely making me walk faster, heh.
Start gently - the watch will set a goal weekly. As you complete the goal, it rises. It took me a long time to realise this and by that time the daily goal was somewhere around 1400 kCal - which is not achievable as I have a life!
