Walking around the parks can be very tiring. For example the walk around Epcot’s World Showcase alone is 1.5 Miles. While the walk from the Entrance of the Magic Kingdom to Space Mountain is a mere 1/2 Miles. Most people walk on average of 10 Miles a day while at the Disney Parks.

Most families are having so much fun they don’t notice the distance till later in the day when their dogs are barking. Even with Monorails, Trains, Boats, etc your still in for a long haul.

Well there is a trick to keeping a spring in your step.

Wear comfortable shoes.

I have close to a dozen pairs of flip flops and wear them everywhere. Well almost everywhere. My family and I do not wear flip flops while at the parks. We learned a long time ago if you wear good walking/running shoes while walking around the parks your feet will be less tired and in turn you keep that spring in your step. Not to mention you’ll be in a better mood.

You don’t believe me next time you are at the parks take one day and wear flip flops and then try walking/running shoes on another day. You will notice a huge difference later in the afternoon when your feet aren’t hurting when you want to jump on Space Mountain for the 4th time.
