Sorry for my last comment. Must have pressed reply by mistake.
Meant to say in reply:
I have sometimes used a timer and walked for a minute (slowly by most people's standards but comfortably for me), then plodded even more slowly (more like a shuffle?!) for the next 2 (or however many I need), then walked 'properly' again for 1, and so on. It's not a complete rest, and probably looks ridiculous, but it does allow time to recover before continuing, and avoids having to stop and sit on garden walls etc, which as you say is often frowned on. Might not work for everyone but it does the job as a workaround for me.
