great that there is a thread about walking.
i've signed up to do a walk around the isle of wight next year, it's 106km. I think the furthest i've ever walked is about 20 miles so this is a different scale.
i'm 50, i've got a minor knee niggle and an ankle (other leg so it balances) screwed and plated back together after a bad break 30 years ago. other than that, all is good.
I went out today and walked 21km in 3.5 hours, quite enjoyed it.
A friend who has done 100km walks before advises that I should get comfortable with 50km and after that "it's just about mental toughness".
any other advice?
