It's very much context dependent on what counts as a "ridiculous distance". A 45 minute, 1 hour walk doesn't at all seem unreasonable to me, and I've walked places for 2, 3 hours when there's no time pressure

I have 1hr 30m roundtrip daily foot commute. I don't think it's unreasonable.
The looks I get from people when I tell them though makes me wonder if I've lost my mind.

Then ask them how long they spend driving to the gym and working out to get the exercise you get for free from your foot commute.

If they weren't usually fitter than me I would! :)

Haha, there's the rub. Well, you have the moral and intellectual high ground waiting for you on the other side of that insulin sensitivity that won't return your texts ;)

The best I can do now is say I get a lot of unprompted thinking done. Eventually I'll end my fling with unearned carbs.

You mean you walk 1hr 30min for both ways or you spend 3 hours per day walking?
Either way, impressive.

both ways, aka roundtrip

Yeah, somehow I got confused since I wasn't sure if you used roundtrip to say that you walk 1hr 30min both ways as if you want to highlight that you don't walk back faster ... which could be the case if you're walking downhill? haha
