Not owning a car is a great way to stay fit, save money, and avoid loads of hassle. This is a blog with thoughts, photos, ideas and links about carfree life: walking, active travel, public transport, places and spaces - things that matter to everyone, but even more when you don’t own a car. Photos are by me unless credited. Forthcoming: book on carfree life. Meantime, get in touch via email at carfreelifeoutsidethebox@gmail.com or Twitter @carfreebrighton

Walk Faster, Live Longer
Here’s a link to a story in the Daily Telegraph which reported some recent research showing that a daily 'power walk' can halve heart attack and stroke risk. But only if you step up the pace to a proper stomp rather than a desultory stroll – although the latter is fine if you are honing your skills as a flaneur.
