If you have ever flown out of Denver International Airport and thought, “man, I feel like I’ve walked miles,” it might be because you have…

There’s some new data out, which shows the airports with the LONGEST WALKS. And some of them really force you to get your steps in.

2. Washington-Dulles Intl. Airport – Longest Distance: 1.62 miles.

3. George Bush Intl. Airport in Houston – Longest Distance: 1.52 miles.

5. JFK Intl. Airport in New York – Longest Distance: 1.38 miles.
