I walk around 8 miles a day at my job. I also like to wrote a lot, and this helps me no end when it comes to planning my stories out. But I wouldn't want to do that around London these days.

I've never had an issue walking around zone 1, from Isle of Dogs to Hampton Court Palace around the Thames, and up to Hampstead Heath, and I've probably done a million steps within these bounds over the years. But, I am a guy and I can't also say I've been much more south than Vauxhall or more north-east than Whitechapel, so I guess mileage may vary.

I walked 8 miles on average in a ten hour shift working at a big chain liquor store during the pandemic. Filling online orders then bringing them to people’s trunks.

There was no though during those hours. Just weed pen rips and the repeating thought “ I am an organic robot hired to complete a task.” I used that mantra when I started to crack or think about how I could change things in the store.
