Win one of four copies of 'Walking'

We have four copies of "Walking" by James Carron to give away. For your chance to win, fill in the form on the right.

Walking is without doubt the healthiest way to get around. The majority of us do it in our everyday lives, whether it is to the shops, to work or just to the nearest bus stop. But walking can be so much more than that; it can make you fitter and more active, helps reduce the risk of heart disease and diabetes, and takes you out into the glorious British countryside for an invigorating dose of fresh air.

Walking - A Beginner's Guide, published 1st September, covers a whole range of subjects: from kitting yourself out and route planning, to understanding access and conservation issues and navigating with a map and compass. Chapters also cover topics such as learning new hill skills; walking with children, infants or while pregnant; taking a dog into the countryside; and practical advice for staying safe.

To help you start walking, the book also includes a selection of great British walks - step-by-step route guides offering a taste of what’s on offer. They range from easy, low-level lakeside strolls, to more challenging upland adventures. And if you fancy going further a field, the book contains a selection of overseas walking destinations.

Author, James Carron, specialises in active outdoor pursuits including hill walking, mountaineering, mountain biking, backpacking and camping. He says: "This book aims to open up the world of leisure walking by providing sound, jargon-free advice... you will find out how just about everyone can enjoy the benefits of regular walking."
