Using Cycling To Improve Your Running: Does It Really Work?: Less than half the amount of people who run also cycle, but these runners could be missing a trick.

I've replaced treadmill walking with daily humping schlepping rucking with all my weight and all my gear: People poo-poo walking as exercise, teasing all of us with our pedometers and Fitbits and our obsession with steps.

Walking: Thu, 1 Aug 2019 19:47:29: A Walk to Whole Paycheck for a Prepared Food Dinner: I ventured from my apartment at 7:50 pm and it was cool and overcast and still daytime. So I walked and walked. I basically walked until I hit my 12,000 steps, which was about another 2.71 miles in addition to the casual walking I did for the day; then, I hopped a city bus, 16H, and rode all the way home.
