Feets don't fail me now!

Hey there! I need opinions from the wise folk of LiveJournal.

So, I'm getting about a mile of walking in per day, but after a week, I'm still a bit winded and overheated when I finish.

According to my A&P class, the slow-twitch muscle fibers are the ones that are for endurance. If I recall correctly speed or greater effort won't help you, but making the distance longer will work on getting those kind of fibers more involved. If I had my textbook I could explain this better.
