I went for what i call a quick walk yesterday. I took my little dog with me(only 6 inch legs so i have to be patient) as i always do. We normally walk about 5 miles in just over an hour. Yesterday i decided to walk the only flat bit around here which is the canal and then the old railway line. I found it too easy. We must've been out for 2 hours yet both of us weren't panting!
The question is do those of you who cycle walk or run on flat terrain feel that you get the same benefits as those who do the same on hills? I feel like my legs haven't had a good stretch and workout when just striding and not climbing.
