Reply to comment by PoopIsAlwaysSunny in TIL while writing "A Christmas Carol," Charles Dickens was "taking night-time walks of 15 to 20 miles (24 to 32 km) around London." to build out the story in his head. by SuperMcG
Jogging is a new sport. Before sneakers, running and walking was even more unpleasant.
Walking 15 miles in a day is too much damn walking in any era.

Lmao. Most people used to walk barefoot. Walking barefoot is comfortable for super long distances if you do it regularly. Maybe not on concrete, but that wasn’t a problem for most of human history
