I should actually probably lower the amount, as my feet hurt way before that amount of walking.Oh, and yes, I'm using the metric system here. I hate the American/Imperial system.

Re: 1 kilometer!?!?!!?
SI (which is technically not the metric system, although it is derived from it and is roughly the same) is better. Meters per second >>> kilometers per hour, and meters cubed >>> litres. Much easier for calculation, even if m^3 is inconvinient.

Re: 1 kilometer!?!?!!?
That seems kinda small... by that account, I shouldn't even be walking home from school. If that restriction was placed on my way to school, of course.
Re: 1 kilometer!?!?!!?
1 kilometre isn't far at all...If the Baron walks as slow as 4 km/h, he'll only need to walk a quarter of an hour before the Baron has to be carried by his good slaves I think we need to encourage the good Baron to do some exercising Richard LyonYansha Elaer Kyon gef ShanPernem kahn gef kuymal per varga stiPernem kahn gef varga per kuymal sti

Re: 1 kilometer!?!?!!?
I was pretty much as unfit as I've ever been near the end of elementary school - and I've never exercised much, and I've always eaten much, so that does mean "very unfit". Still, although I was provided a bus ride both ways, I walked (I could have ridden a bicycle... if it wasn't for a certain event in my life that's best left in history now that I've gotten over it (*)) home from school every day. The length of the trip was seven kilometres. I did it for my own good and out of my own volition.(*) I did actually post about it once, and I suspect that at least Moose still remembers it. The thread itself, however, is lost to ezPlague. The league of sadistic telepaths: "There's someone in your head and it's not you"
Re: 1 kilometer!?!?!!?
Yikes - that's long. That's about how much I can cycle (I can walk longer though) without dying. But I don't really dare walking long, as... my sense of orientation is way to bad. I lived in a small town in Sweden, about 10 000 in the actual town. After having lived there for 15 years I still got lost when walking home from friends' houses, and their houses were only a few blocks away from home!

1km is only like 5/8's of a mile. I agree with Conglacio. Get help. Now.Either that or buy yourself a popemobile...

Re: 1 kilometer!?!?!!?
I totally understand about the feet thing. I currently wear nothing but Reef brand flip flops (the squishy kind), and my feet have never been happier with me (except maybe when I was a little kid). My flip flops go with me everywhere, every day.I definitely recommend insoles if your feet bother you when walking half a mile or so. *throws grenade for the hell of it*BO0O0O0O0/\/\!!!!!!

Re: 1 kilometer!?!?!!?
You can be pretty unfit and still walk pretty far. Sure, your feet start hurting after a while, but if you just ignore the pain when it starts up it doesn't get much worse until after twenty or thirty kilometers. Edited by: Scott of Hyperborea at: 10/24/05 11:16
