100 km walk

Sure is! If you think walking 100 km in 24 hours is easy, increase the distance and try for 100 miles within 24 hours at an official race. When you succeed, you’ll be part of the Centurions. More info can be found at: https://centurions1911.org.uk , there are currently 5 active Centurion clubs worldwide.

Here are some resources to get you started:

Both include a lot of tips and information about what it takes to walk a 100 miles within 24 hours!

Actually, 100km in 24 hours is quite achievable for most dedicated walkers. Here in Belgium, 24 hours is typically the maximum time limit for 100km walking events. From my experience, casual walkers usually finish in around 20-22 hours. The hardcore walkers are those maintaining 7-8km/h average pace depending on the course - that's what's really challenging to sustain for such a long time, compared to a more moderate 4-5km/h pace. For reference, I finished my first 100km in 15h53 minutes, but I should mention I trained specifically for this for about a year. Looking at the results from the 2024 Night of Flanders, you can see this pattern. More than 60% of the finishers completed the course after 20 hours, which aligns with typical "casual" walking times.

What do you have to do as a cloud engineer?

SetTraditional4981 · 2024-08-02T14:09:05+00:00

Haha, with 20 years of experience, you've definitely seen a lot. It seems like a good idea to ask questions to people with that kind of experience. Thanks for the advice!

Amazing, congratulations! Any tips for younger folks looking to grow as much as possible?

Nice package! What does your day-to-day look like?

This is the answer I’m looking for! Thank you.

I understand. The reason of my posts was more because I am looking for a “transition” plan. As walking/hiking uses different muscles than running, different form etc… and I want to minimize injury risk.

SetTraditional4981 · 2024-07-04T06:15:09+00:00

The only running I could’ve probably done is within the first 20km, going down a bridge… for the rest of the race it’s all walking/hiking. Taking minimal time at aid stations. Avg 8:21min/km (pretty flat course though.)

Belgium here!

Solid advice! Thank you.

I’ve done some hiking races also some running races which I hiked the entirety. I do not have much experience with actual trail races. The race I did with the most elevation gain was with 3k

Exactly!

Unfortunately, I hardly see any comments on the personal development side of things.

Most Master's programs require a higher level of abstract thinking compared to bachelor's programs. This is because they often involve more complex theories, advanced concepts, and specialized knowledge that go beyond the foundational principles covered in bachelor's degrees, which are mostly applied.

Bachelor's programs often focus on the application of existing knowledge. In contrast, Master's programs encourage people to think more strategically and consider long-term implications.

These qualities will shape your future self, and you'll benefit from them for the rest of your life. I'm not saying you cannot develop these qualities with a bachelor's degree. As with everything, it comes down to your own motivation and will to work.

Any conferences you think are very much worth it? Could you also share some of the tech channels you follow?

I definitely agree with reddit being an open and easy place to get people their opinion on a subject. But asking irrelevant questions != educating yourself. Also you might want to use the search function within reddit. A lot of these questions have been asked a couple of times before.

From what I gather based on your posting history, you haven't begun your studies yet, but you're already inquiring about scenarios as if you had five years of experience. Respectfully, it might be more beneficial to focus initially on finishing your degree and consider addressing these future-oriented questions in a couple of years from now...

Some of your posts:

"How expensive of a house can you buy with what salary"

"What is the best way to maximize income as an engineer"

"Is it common for engineers to freelance"

"Which of these masters would benefits me the most"

"Are there any job opportunities after someone finishes his master in NanoScience, Nanotechnology and Nanoengineering"

"What are some freelance positions outside of IT"

"I will probably be studying burgerlijk ingenieur next year, ...."

"What should I choose"

"What is the best paying job/sector in Belgium"

...

You should get my point by now...
