wow 14km impressive... few people can walk/hike/run that.
Thanks! Didn't know that this would be impressive. I also walked that distance yesterday more or less by accident. I didn't think I would make it but then I was back in familiar terrain faster than I expected. Then I knew I could make it, lol. Then I thought, let's do this again tomorrow!
It's tiring at the end but it's still just walking. One step at a time. Sitting on a bench also feels very relieving. I also think the last 2 kilometers when I am in urban area again take up the most time, lol. So much traffic, so easy to get lost. I hate looking at maps.
My record in a day straight was 29km over 5 mountains with high levels included and harsh terrain. But that was years ago....
Interesting! In flat terrain, that would already probably take around 8 hours. Can't imagine how long it would take over mountainous terrain ... you still remember?
My walks have been quite flat so far but I really start to like these long walks. I really get a feeling for how much I can walk and what my "action radius" is.
I want to find out how much is too much for me in the next weeks. I am basically doing calisthenics, running and then 2x long walk so far.

Started at 8AM and end up at 22PM, with backpacks and stuff, with my 14 yrs daughter. Was a harsh hike but we had to do it in one day, otherwise were losing the last bus to take us home. The highest peak was 3000m in that hike.
Indeed 14km on flat is easy, you don't even realize when you are done.
