Yeah once I read that I realised it wasn’t extreme at all.

I take ~2 mile brisk walks every day (the kind where my pulse will average to 130), interspersed with casual multi-mile hikes up the mountain trail nearby. That’s just my baseline cardio and movement to feel good and keep myself healthy.

What I’ve learned is a lot of people would call a “brisk walk” which takes your heart rate to average 130 “a run”. A runner’s definition of running can be quite different to a layperson’s.

		I always thought (and still do!) it's about whether there are moments when both of your feet are off the ground, not about the pace.

Isn't that running?

If my heart rate is 130, that's a run for me, all be ot slow. 33-35min ish 5k.

A brisk walk would be 95ish
