About 30km/19 miles, what I do know is it was 28km from Lake Magog to the south end of Spray Lakes but we spent a while wandering around the looping trails at Assiniboine Lodge trying to find the proper traihead because it had just snowed plus they had huge areas fenced off for renovating the lodge. I figure we put in an extra couple kilometers there.

I'm fine for blisters, they rarely form. My personal issue with long distances is just sore feet. After about 17km I don't want to stop for a break, because if I do, the numbness built up from walking on sore feet goes away. When the feeling comes back after a rest and you start to go again, it hurts so bad.

I think the only real remedy for that is just to walk really far as often as possible to build a tolerance.

Go back to YLLS.

This isn't about exercise, this is about experience. On your jog, did you pick up a hammer that you forgot about until airport security found it in your bag, weeks later?

Did you not see my callout earlier? If you don't apologize in the next 10 minutes you are getting a probation do I make myself clear?

I didn't, and I do apologize. I don't really want to make people feel bad that they aren't as poor and pathetic as me.

I also slept through my probation.

I figured, I just really wanted to post that bear gif

42km, it's 21km to Hargreaves shelter. Still very far! I've seen people do it as trailruns, I was impressed.

Probably a few miles, 5 tops. I think someone would have to be pretty misled about the pleasures and benefits of walking to do more than that.

I think you're in the wrong subforum.
