Do you know someone who enjoys walking? Would you like to buy them a special gift? The gifts for walkers listed below are gifts that can be used while walking or afterwards too. The gifts come in a variety of prices to help you keep within your budget.

One local shopping mall opens its doors two hours before the stores open to allow mall walkers the opportunity to walk inside the mall. On occasion we have joined the other walkers in the mall. Maybe the person you know also likes to walk in a nearby shopping mall.

1. Walking Shoes
You can either buy them a gift card to a store that specializes in athletic shoes or if possible, take them shopping and buy them a pair of walking shoes. If you decide on the latter, create your own "coupon" to give them. To make the "coupon" you can use your computer and then print it or you can make one using construction paper and a pen.

2. Activewear
A nice outfit to wear while walking is a great gift idea. You can choose a pair of pants, a top, and perhaps a hoodie or jacket. The gift recipient will take pleasure in such a thoughtful gift.

3. Pedometer
Keeping track of the number of steps or miles that a person walks gives a great sense of accomplishment. There are so many different pedometers to choose from, from the basic to the more elaborate in various price ranges. For example, some pedometers might have a feature that shows the amount of calories burned, while others might have the feature of a stopwatch.

4. Gift Card
In keeping with the positive benefits of being a walker, a gift card from a restaurant, such as a sandwich shop that offers healthy alternatives to fast food is a nice idea. The walker can treat herself or himself to a quick lunch or a light dinner.

5. Music Device/Radio
There are many types to chose from, for example, an mp3 player, a personal size radio, etc. This gift will allow the walker to listen to music or the news as they walk helping to pass the time.

6. Socks
A few pairs of really nice comfortable socks are a thoughtful gift for any person who enjoys walking.
