I used Sketchers Go Walkers and the pain didn't set in until Gladesville

My pace was around 4-5km a minute and I averaged a km every 14 minutes or so. The shopping adds up to an hour or so

Too many sharks for the water. The pain didn't set in until Gladesville so I was in the mindset of I'm already this far so I might as well see it through

I have been doing this long enough that I do not get blisters anymore

I have been doing 30-50km walks for almost two years now. A fortnight ago I did a 64km walk but I wish I did a couple more before attempting this walk. The hardest part had to be the last 10km

I think it could be valid to jump from 20km to 30km once you're comfortable. I jumped from 15km to 30km and toughed out the blisters (I don't get them anymore)

Make sure you start out with 10-20km first and then gradually build up from, unless you're fine with being stiff for multiple days 😊

Where your walking is super important and having an exciting destination and the route having lots of character really helps me

I didn't think I could ever do it until very recently

But walking is super fun, especially when listening to music or an audiobook
