I also find that you can save time from your walks by increasing intensity. You don't have to necessarily run to get a quicker cardio workout in. Simply walk up hill, up stairs, with weights, faster, etc. The more energy you use per step, the less time it will take you to get the same burn.
That's a great idea that I'm sure a lot of people wouldn't think of.
