It didn’t make sense to me either.

I prefer walking vs running/jogging. I’m usually walking at a 16 minute 30 second mile most of the time & on a day when I warm up properly I manage to do a 3 mile walk in 48-50 minutes. Monday thru Friday I walk 5 miles every day before 9am. Gotta get the miles in early here in the summer unless you want to bake in the extreme heat later in the day.

I was doing 40 mile weeks earlier this year but my knees started complaining & I cut back to 20-25 miles a week. Since I medicate before these walks most days I seldom experience any discomfort & I enjoy starting most every day walking the 1st mile with my wife. Tis’ a wonderful feeling & a great way to start the day.

Good for you-—I was a 3 mile a day walker for many years-—never in less than an hour,though.

There was no better way to ease stress or depression.

Now I’m so old I walk MUCH less——have to be within easy reach of a restroom. :-)

That is tremendous. I have been there, I have some issues that preclude that but I still do gym very often. I used to bench 310 10 reps but I did 150 the other day and fist pumped. Keep it up. When you can’t run, walk. These self absorbed pansies make me pike. Most are liberal as hell looking for sympathy. Marijuana my butt.
