What if you get this bonus on top of your normal bonus? Would you walk then?

Again, no because a bonus is based on your performance at work, how you coworkers performed, how you all performed together at work and unless your work was directly related to you and your team running and even then you'd be running on company time.

A person running has fuck all to do with performance at work and thinking about it more especially more with the various people I have and do work with, I find myself thinking how this really is an assinine idea that is not only a overstep into community script territory but also could be a very shitty thing for employee morale.

A bonus can be anything. Doesn't necessarily have to be tied to your performance. It's called a discretionary bonus

My question assumes you get your normal performance-based bonus... But you get an additional bonus based on your walking

Maybe it's just me, but I find it mind-boggling that you wouldn't do it. You're getting paid to be healthy, essentially...
