NHS England rewards 30 minutes walking: Walk every day for a month to qualify for incentives; challenge launches next year

The NHS is getting into the rewards business, and all it wants in return is 30 minutes of your day.

NHS England is set to launch a new scheme early next year that will give people incentives and discounts for walking every single day, the BBC first reported. The idea is simple: walk for around half an hour a day, every day for a month, and you will have covered roughly 26 miles, the same distance as a marathon. Do that, and you become eligible for rewards.
