Well, looked at another way:
Say you could walk a cumulative mile every day at 62 calories. Over a year you would burn 22,630 calories, which at 3500 calories/pound is just under 6 1/2 pounds, which I find pretty a pretty impressive return on a minimal investment (having just struggled to lose about the same amount in about 2 months). If you're seriously overweight it's not going to solve the problem by itself, but it's an extra 6 1/2 lbs nonetheless!
