Abstract:
:In 2003, the American Podiatric Medical Association conducted its second annual "Walking City Competition." The objective of the study was to update and expand on the results of a previous study conducted in 2002, taking into account a wider variety of measures of walking and walking conditions and identifying the best cities for walking in the United States on a regional basis.
