Walking is recommended by many health care professionals as a good way to strengthen your feet and ankle muscles before attempting any sort of distance running. In short, any aerobic exercise is healthily; while running will burn more calories than walking given an equivalent time, it's no good if injuries prevent you from furthering your exercise plans.

Would you lose more weight walking or running a mile?

1) one mile is too short to have any important weight loss effect regardless what you do. 2) calorie use running vs walking a set distance is pretty much the same.
