The long walk

Go the distance · Walking · 60 min

Endurance starts here: a single, longer walk that gently stretches how long you can keep going. Add a little each week and your range grows without you noticing.

How to do it

Keep it easy-moderate the whole way — a pace you could hold for a good chat. Bring water and enjoy the distance.
