Could you easily walk 10k

[Shoeshelpplease]

Would you need to train?

Would you struggle at all to walk it (say within two hours)

Would you ache or hurt the next day?

His is general terrain, nothing difficult or unusual about it.

It would take me all day with lots of breaks and id be very sore for days after.

Me too @Verily1 shall we form a slow walkers club?

I only walk 10k a fortnight.

Where do you people find the time for all this exercise?

I hate being in chronic pain, even rolling over in bed, or standing up, let alone actually walking, hurts.
I guess that is my normal

Where do you people find the time for all this exercise?

I walk to work instead of taking the tube or bus. It actually takes about the same amount of time and much better than waiting at the bus stop or crowded platform.

Able bodied people of more or less any age, health and fitness allowing, shouldn't struggle with 10k. I could walk that with ease, even on tough terrain.

Where do you people find the time for all this exercise?

I walk to work. It's 30 mins each way at a brisk pace. Plus school run and supermarket. It adds up.
On Saturday I ran to parkrun, "raced" then did errands on the way home. 7 miles on foot done before 11am.

I do have wretched depression and IBS, being active and in the daylight helps to control it.

yes

No, I have a lot of problems with my feet. The pain of walking would start before I got to the end of my street. 6 miles would be utter misery. The pain would go into the next day and most likely trigger an RA flare up. I would love to be able to go for walks in the countryside but I’m not made for it.

Yes, easily, on all terrains. We go hiking one day every weekend, with the dog and the 8yo. Love nature, love the mountain air. Don't have sore feet/legs the next day.
Both DH and I are rather overweight, DS like a whippet.

Where do you people find the time for all this exercise?

I don't watch TV. I don't sleep much (insomnia). Cycle to work and shops.

I could walk it easily with no training. Not sure how long it'd take me, maybe 2-3 hours?

Yes easily in under 2 hours. Can run 10k in an hour.

Yes. But my feet would hurt the next day as I have the beginnings of arthritis in them

I'm middle aged and two stone overweight but could easily walk 10k. Wouldn't even notice it. On holiday we usually walk twice that at least every day as we like to sightsee on foot. 10k is only about 6 miles. It's nothing.

I wish!
Chronic illnesses stopped that level of activity a decade ago. I would love to be able to walk 1km.

Those of you who can walk or even run it are very fortunate, please appreciate your good health.

Actually, I've just looked and it's 6.2 miles, so would definitely take me less than 2 hours, as long as I wasn't dragging the 3yo with me. I could push the pram though.

I'm not particularly fit though, and I'm overweight. I can walk fairly easily though.

I commute 20 miles to work so walking/ cycling there isn’t an option.

I’ll change my question - where do people who commute and do sedentary jobs find time to exercise?

I walked 26km in a day on holiday (according to iPhone) I've walked further. 10km is nothing

I do roughly 16km a day on a bike and it takes me just over an hour, walking takes two and a half hours.

However, I suffer from extreme anxiety, although I am getting a hell of a lot better if it hits, I can't walk beyond my front door

Should add a caveat, it does depend on terrain, 20km in hilly areas is pretty tough even in good walking gear and with experience. I'm middle aged and overweight but can walk! Obviously if you are disabled that's different

Easily. I walk on average 12.5k a day when working on shift.

I do that most days-up some big hills too. It's the school run and a trip to the local shops 🤷🏼‍♀️

What @Dyrne said on P4.

Walking 6.25miles in 2 hours is a pretty brisk pace. If you aren't used to walking, it seems pretty sensible to be to "train" a bit first if that is what is going to be expected of them.

Of course everyone doesn't walk that on a daily basis. All sorts of reasons why people don't have time to fit exercise into their days.

Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't have a problem doing a 10km / 6.25mile walk, but I wouldn't do it in 2 hours. I certainly don't walk that far on a usual day.
