My suggestion is to get a pedometer. It is recommended that healthy person should be taking 10,000 steps a day.

well you should get your heart rate going for at least 30 minutes I think...so maybe..5 minute warm up walk....30 minute run or so..and 5 minute cool down walk..you don't have to be a track star but just enough run to get your blood flow going...just make sure you eat enough to fuel your body and stay healthy..
