General Guidelines. Weight loss specialists often advise patients who want to walk to lose weight to aim to move for 30 minutes at least four or five times a week. Many people are able to cover about 2 miles (about 3 km) in this amount of time, and the calorie burn is significant, too. A 150-pound (68 kg) person walking between 3.5 to 4 miles (5.6 to 6.4 km) an hour can expect to burn about 300 calories.
How Far is Too Far to Walk Without Training? Most people whose feet are not prepared by being toughened up on previous walks will have blisters by 10 or 12 miles. If you are going to walk more than six miles, you should steadily increase the longest mileage by one mile per week or two miles every two weeks. The general rule of thumb for exercise is to increase your distance or exertion by 10% per week. That will lessen your risk of getting an injury.
