Longest walk for a while

[Doris8]

Back out on my longer walks for weekend 10.44 km or 6.45 miles in 1 hour 35 mins. Was out at 6.20am , at least it’s light in mornings but got wet. Not a very attractive route I went but probably safest with plenty of lights and traffic, Hopefully shortly will go a more scenic way. Trying to get my challenges for month on Strava and Garmin, at least it’s an incentive to get out especially when I don’t have a dog to drag me out for a walk. Did my usual 4 km walks weekdays .

Hope u have a good weekend 😊

Wow! That's a long walk, well done. I'm guessing that you've been doing this for a while?

Yes I have as have severe osteoporosis.have been on . Have jogged for a few years now but was getting sore and was walking again but got a wee bit bored so tried other day to get back slow jogging but hip got sore and stress fracture on back so resigned to brisk walking. I do one long walk Sunday as off work and usually 4 km rest of week before work I was off walking for a week, just couldn’t be bothered but now back . Less stress on joints walking.

I used to go jogging when I was a lot younger (and really enjoyed it) but my joints wouldn't cope with it now. I'm hoping that the Active 10 app will help me to get more into walking though.
