  • I walked 100,000 steps in 24 hours and it was the hardest physically and mental challenge I have ever done!
    I explored Macau on my 100,000 steps challenge, using my Garmin watch to record my steps. It works similarly to a fitbit, recording the amount of steps you do while walking.
    I wanted to do this extreme adventure challenge to test my limits and see if I could walk 100,000 steps in a day.
    As a challenge itself, it was very difficult but what made it harder was the fact that I filmed it all solo. I used my camera and tripod, carrying all my gear on my back for the 24 hour hiking challenge.
    There were extreme highs and lows in this crazy travel experience however finishing it at 22 hours of walking was the most rewarding feeling in the world.
    The distance of 100,000 steps is around 50 miles or 80km and I had never done anything close to that distance.
    Many ultra marathons are 50 miles but I was only walking not running so it was not as bad as that! (perhaps next time I can try!)
    I walked around Macau, exploring off the beaten path and discovering hidden gems all around the place. With this many steps to do I really could walk down every alleyway and street in Macau, exploring all the areas I had never travelled to before.
    Macau is a great city for a challenge like this as I could explore so many different urban and natural environments, walking and hiking at the scenic Penha Hills for sunrise. When hiking off trail I even found 2 abandoned buildings that were awesome fun to explore.
    I also walked past Ama Temple, the oldest temple in Macau at over 500 years old. The whole area around this Chinese temple is full of interesting history and a wonderful travel destination for things to do in Macau.
    I walked down the red street, Senado Square, Hong Kung Temple and went to a secret travel destination called Sun Yat Sen Park. This park found on the border of Zhuhai offers great nature spots and very beautiful walks through greenery. It is certainly a hidden gem of Macau and worth travelling to or visiting when in Macau whether you live in Macau or are visiting on a Macau day trip from Hong Kong or China.
    I then walked to Kun Iam Temple, exploring the ancient garden, off the beaten path and far from the crowds there are so many things to discover here it really makes for a great outdoor hiking adventure!
    I walked over the Macau bridge to Taipa, exploring Old Taipa Village and then going back to the Grand Lisboa Hotel. Here back in Macau side you can find photogenic neon lit streets perfect for urban exploring or night photography.
    Overall walking 100,000 steps in 1 day was an awesome adventure and a crazy travel challenge. Thank you to Garmin for recording all my steps!
    I really hope you enjoyed this adventure video in Macau and if you would like to see more adventure vlogs like this one or more travel content in Macau, please let me know!
    Thank you so much for watching this adventure challenge and I will see you in the next video!

    This really spoke to me. I am a bit of self diagnosed insomniac. I couldn’t sleep last night and, as I often do, I went for a late night walk. From 2am to 10am I walked the streets of Quito, old and new town. Nothing compared to your 100,000 steps, but I will feel it tomorrow. Many people would say walking in a big city in a foreign country at night is not safe, but I find it just as safe as during the day, just with different dangers. I have walked cities all over the world in the late night/early morning hours. It is, I think, the most unique and under appreciated way to get to know a city. also a very unique way to view a city.

      So happy that this video could speak to you and thank you for leaving comment. I just searched up Quito and it looks like a beautiful place to explore through walking. That is great you have found something to do at nights and amazing you have experienced the peaceful night of so many cities around the world. What an experience and a great example of turning a negative to a positive! Totally agree, it is another side to the city and as someone who doesn't like crowds I love getting up very early and walking the quiet streets. Hope you can keep exploring and thanks for watching!

    Great achievment and a nice video. Just for you to know, my grandpa was on the eastern front of WW2 in Russia, as an officer of the Hungarian army. He told me that the infantrymen were expected to walk 40 km/day (thats 50K steps). It was a little harder because they carried 40 pounds of equipment and didnt have the luxury of paved roads most of the time. All that said, 100K steps is pretty crazy, and you also did the filming, big respect.

    I remember hiking 40,000 steps a day in Argentina and thinking that was insane. Good job man

    • @joshtheintern
      @joshtheintern  Před 3 lety +1

      40,000 steps is not easy especially when hiking, well done man and thanks for watching!

  • @StaffanSolin
    @StaffanSolin Před 3 lety

    I liked that you kept so much footage of you walking and explaining how you felt during the 100k's, when you started to really hurt and you just pushing through the pain. Must've been so annoying having that mask on... I just tried this challenge myself. It is insanely painful, me and my brother were low on time as well and had to run 30 minutes each hour for the last 6 hours to finish of before midnight 😅

    • @joshtheintern
      @joshtheintern  Před 3 lety

      Thank you so much Staffan! Congrats on giving the challenge a go that sounds really hard I can't imagine including running in between especially near the last 20,000 steps. Well done and thanks for watching!

  • @RawPowerliftingStrength

    Im making a similar video tomorrow and walking 100,000 steps in one go! any advice or motivation?

    • @joshtheintern
      @joshtheintern  Před 4 lety +1

      Wow that is awesome man, super good luck. You can absolutely do it, it is all about mental stamina, physically I am sure you can do it just keep reminding yourself that in the later hours. Try to find a way to pass the time, maybe music or podcasts or have a walk somewhere beautiful. Bring lots of snacks, lots of carbs and tasty stuff to treat yourself. I look forward to seeing your video :D

    • @joshtheintern
      @joshtheintern  Před 4 lety +1

      Thank you very much! My legs were surprisingly ok a little stiff stairs were difficult but my feet got really swollen I couldn't really walk well the next day xD

  • @falkofscrum
    @falkofscrum Před 3 lety +2

    2 days ago I went on a 60.000 step walk, lasting 7 hours. It was on a deserted road in the woods, so I filled my backpack with food and drinks (which became REALLY heave as the hours went by). Now, 2 days later, my legs don't hurt, but I can't walk because i have 4 blisters on each foot which hurt like HELL! But it was worth it... I think :p

    • @joshtheintern
      @joshtheintern  Před 3 lety +1

      Wow man congrats that is amazing! I think it is definitely worth challenging yourself like that and again congrats for completing it. It also took me a couple of days to recover from the challenge especially my feet

  • @twoaveragemummies5352
    @twoaveragemummies5352 Před 3 lety

    • @joshtheintern
      @joshtheintern  Před 3 lety

    I have a question. Who was filming with you? Or you filmed the whole thing by yourself?
    Edit: I got my answer from other comments. Respect!

    • @joshtheintern
      @joshtheintern  Před 4 lety +1

      Thanks very much! Yeah it is all self filmed for almost all my videos on this channel. This once was especially challenging once I got very tired but I love to film in that style so was worth pushing through

    @dyumnamadan9576 Před 3 lety

    Huge respect dude! I tried out this challenge myself for my channel and could reach only 50k
    Your video is very inspiring and very well done
    If you got any time would love any advice on how I could get to 100k in some time and would love any criticism on my video it's nowhere close to your style or editing but I tried
    Cheers man and ur definitely going places

  • @angelroberts20
