2 - 5 miles hiking is more than enough😁 It's not a competition😀 Just get out and do it as much as you can. It keeps you fit😊 Nice hiking out there today!
I just want to get out more often for the exercise. I need to drop a few dozen pounds. I was doing 8 miles on the exercise bike til new years when I started getting sick. I'm hoping to gain fitness and endurance for a couple of longer multi-day hikes as my end goal. At least I know I'll need to ramp up slowly and consistently to reach goals. One of my former hiking buddies (psycho) used to push me past rest breaks and meals because they'd trudge on foolishly for 25-30 miles just to brag about it. I don't hike with them anymore. I sometimes hike with others and tend to get more miles in with them than I do on my own. Hiking solo is nice in that I can set my own pace that works for my body and not overdo it.
@@MikeycatOutdoors yeah, if you overdo it then you need a lot of recovery time and you may not want to get back out there and do it again. You're doing the right thing😁
