Knee Bones Connected To The Thigh Bone

Charles Austin -- who's sadly given up blogging again -- claimed that walking and running the same distance burned the same number of calories, running just did it faster.

And running is especially hard on the knees and quads. I could have told you that, but the article does it so much more scientifically.
