Depends on the walking. How about walking around inside your home? They were carrying takeaway hot drinks, so exercising wasn't their priority. They must've met up to get the drinks before going out "walking". They were wearing wellington boots, hardly footwear suitable for power walking. It was TWO households meeting up. Against the rules, whatever way you try to twist it.

When you see the people crowded cheek by jowl in Hyde park, full car parks and not a copper in sight you know that they're priorities are not right.

They WEREN'T exercising. They were meeting up in a place where they thought they could get away with it.
