    Sad, but with a lower risk of diabetes:

    Every 1 km/hour increase in walking speed was associated with a 9% lower risk of type 2 diabetes, with the minimal threshold of 4km/hour equal to 87 steps/min for men and 100 steps/ min for women, the findings suggest.

      Type 2, fast walker here. I walk for my health and I enjoy the cardio and feeling.

      You know who’s really unhappy?

      People in sports cars.

      I mean… Think about it. Walking fast is still slower than almost all other means of transport. People in cars must always be grumpy as hell.
