I prefer cycling, i like feeling wind in my face and being able to travel much faster and further, and judging by how much sweat i produce while cycling, i can confidently say that it is a more rewarding form of exercise.

I can't walk around my neighborhood because it seems like 1 in 10 houses has their stupid mutt out in their yard without a leash. I've been chased by so many dogs it's unbelievable, dog owners destroyed this place and now I only ever see people go outside if they have a dog with them to scare off the other dogs

>>50416I love walking. I wake up around 5am and go to a 1 hour walk at 6am. At 5pm(sometimes at 6pm) I go for another 1 hour walk. Sometimes I walk for 2 or 3 hours, depending on how I'm feeling. Today I decided to run, but after 10 minutes I was so fucking tired I just went back to walking. I want to be able to run for 30 minutes nonstop, at least, just to have some goal in life.

>>50416A couple times I went and walked on the side of a highway where I live, no sidewalks here. I don't do it anymore because there isn't much to see and nowhere to really go.
No.65658
>>65639is it common for people to walk there where there is no sidewalk? it would make me anxious standing out like that as a pedestrian, besides all the ruckus and danger that come with sharing the road with speeding drivers
it's something i have come to hate: when you step out of urban areas you've got towns that are a few miles apart, but it's practically impossible to just walk there. sometimes there are dedicated bicycle lanes and pathways and that's it.
but nobody cares since it's so commonly accepted. this is what makes rural life so repulsive to me. every little town or hamlet is like a small island

I have started rucking. 8km / 5 miles with a 20kg/ 44lbs backpack, 2 times a week.
I don't recommend doing this if you've been sedentary for a long time. It's good to work on your leg strenght, flexibility, and back strenght before starting this.

>>50416Love walking in the woods. Sometimes I go for an hour, sometimes less. Luckily I live rurally so I usually don't encounter a single other person on my trips. I have some busted up hiking boots that I need to replace once I have money, I'd like to get some minimal trail shoes. I had some Nikes a long time ago where you could feel the little stones and shape of the terrain as you walked, I want that again. I usually don't take pics unless I remember to bring my old digicam.

I have been walking 3 hours everyday since October since I'm currently a NEET it is the best way for me distract myself and when I get home I normally take a nice hot shower lay in bed and nap for 2 hours.
Honestly I have seen a good different on my physical performance and body but the best to come out of this is really just not being so angry at the world so often. I love walking

I'm blessed with having a small forest park w/ trails VERY close to me, as in literally across the street from me. Love watching the trees turn to autumn colors lately, cool and damp temps w/ lots of mushrooms growing within.
Also you're almost guaranteed to run into a pile of dook left by deer, OR some bird/rabbit/squirrel who thought dying right in the middle of the path would be a neat idea. I get to see them decompose into a pile of fetid black rotted shit every time I return to that spot over the course of time, it's very educational.
I'm almost always out for at least an hour, and prefer wearing work boots rather than hiking boots, it's very important that it's something waterproof especially during winter.

Usually to the store, to get food. Rarely to the movies this year (saw 3). Recently I walked all the way to a forest reserve, mostly because trees are known to emmit some phermones that wake you up in a way.

>>71240>I wear 10$ soles to correct my walking posture. Turns out my gait wasn't just bad, it was ill due to some wrong angles. They advice me to get custom 100$ soles, alsoi really learned how to walk from skating where i repeated the same movement over and over again for hours, trying to find small ways to make it better and i found them and they have translated to every movement i make. doing this i noticed there are people who don't use their backfoot to push off the ground/forward before lifting it to set it as frontfoot. some people just lift their front foot the way a crane lifts a heavy piece of pipe and then lower it, that's so funny to me.
when you get the timing right and push off the backfoot, it feels like being a steam locomotive. i feel like a train doing this and i visualize the steam-logo.
