• "And by a quirk of evolution, these brain systems also support functions such as cognitive mapping," by which he means our internal GPS system. But these aren't the only overlaps between movement and mental and cognitive health that neuroscience has identified.

• There is no data of any quality showing that, over the long term, reliance on GPS is a bad thing. Honestly, the brain is much more robust."
  O'Mara describes our inbuilt GPS, or cognitive mapping system, as a silent sense.

• Theta is a pulse or frequency (seven to eight hertz, to be precise) which, says O'Mara, "you can detect all over the brain during the course of movement, and it has all sorts of wonderful effects in terms of assisting learning and memory, and those kinds of things". Theta cranks up when we move around because it is needed for spatial learning, and O'Mara suspects that walking is the best movement for such learning

• You'll get raised levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) which, writes O'Mara, "could be thought of as a kind of a molecular fertiliser produced within the brain because it supports structural remodelling and growth of synapses after learning. BDNF increases resilience to ageing, and damage caused by trauma or infection." Then there's vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), which helps to grow the network of blood vessels carrying oxygen and nutrients to brain cells.
  Some people, I point out, don't think walking counts as proper exercise

• My notion - and we need to test this - is that the activation that occurs across the whole of the brain during problem-solving becomes much greater almost as an accident of walking demanding lots of neural resources."
  O'Mara's enthusiasm for walking ties in with both of his main interests as a professor of experimental brain research: stress, depression and anxiety; and learning, memory and cognition. "It turns out that the brain systems that support learning, memory and cognition are the same ones that are very badly affected by stress and depression," he says

• Our jaunt begins at the grand old gates of his workplace, Trinity College, and takes in the Irish famine memorial at St Stephen's Green, the Georgian mile, the birthplace of Francis Bacon, the site of Facebook's new European mega-HQ and the salubrious seaside dwellings of Sandymount.
  O'Mara, 53, is in his element striding through urban landscapes - from epic hikes across London's sprawl to more sedate ambles in Oxford, where he received his DPhil - and waxing lyrical about science, nature, architecture and literature. He favours what he calls a "motor-centric" view of the brain - that it evolved to support movement and, therefore, if we stop moving about, it won't work as well.
  This is neatly illustrated by the life cycle of the humble sea squirt which, in its adult form, is a marine invertebrate found clinging to rocks or boat hulls

• Theta cranks up when we move around because it is needed for spatial learning, and O'Mara suspects that walking is the best movement for such learning. "The timescales that walking affords us are the ones we evolved with," he writes, "and in which information pickup from the environment most easily occurs."

• To get the maximum health benefits, he recommends that "speed should be consistently high over a reasonable distance - say consistently over 5km/h, sustained for at least 30 minutes, at least four or five times a week."
  Twice during our circuitous route, he asks me to point to where I think our starting point of Trinity College is, and my estimates are pretty close

"That just shows you how good your GPS is," he says. "You have never been here before, but you have a very good sense of where you need to go." This is reassuring, I say, because, of course, Google Maps is enfeebling our innate abilities to find our way
