There's got to be some joke... I'm just not thinking of it.  Something like, "This whole time... I thought I was walking."

I was driving and saw one of my co-workers walking on his break.  I guess he's trying to lose weight for his health.

He wasn't moving all that fast, but he was walking steady.

He said, "no."

Hee, hee.
