How to walk more miles on a daily basis It’s a good idea to try to figure out where you’re at with your baseline—meaning, how much you’re walking to start. You can ramp things up from there.
So, for example, if a route is 20 kilometres (12 mi) with 1600 metres of climb (as is the case on leg 1 of the Bob Graham Round, Keswick to Threlkeld), the equivalent flat distance of this route is 20+(1.6×8)=32.8 kilometres (20.4 mi). Assuming an individual can maintain a speed on the flat of 5 km/h, the route will take 6 hours and 34 minutes.
The 10,000 steps per day rule isn’t based in science. Here’s what experts have to say about how much you should actually walk per day for maximum benefits.
2 minutes: Walk at a moderate pace on a double-digit incline (10 percent or higher). 1 minute : Decrease the incline to 3 to 5 percent and maintain a steady pace. Repeat this interval 6 more times.
The Long Distance Walkers Association in the UK is for the more energetic walker, and organizes lengthy challenge hikes of 20 or even 50 miles (30 to 80 km) or more in a day. The LDWA's annual "Hundred" event, entailing walking 100 miles or 160 km in 48 hours, takes place each British Spring Bank Holiday weekend.
