Another solid walk. Added one pound to the backpack and walked 7 laps instead of six. Total walk time 1 hour 10 min. Pace about the same although legs were definitely getting tired by lap four. Each lap took between 7 and 8 minutes. Finished faster too, negative split. Not as bitter cold either.
Next week add another pound or two to the bag and keep it at seven laps.
Will keep adding time til I get to ninety minutes. Feels so good to be able to walk so strongly for so long.
Finished up with bar hangs, all tactical pullup grip , four sets of 30-20 seconds. These are definitely stronger.
Perhaps one day to test myself :) and be able to walk like this guy:

"And in those simple beautiful movements I remembered what was really important in training; that consistency trumps intensity; all the time. That intensity is born from consistency. That one cannot force it, one has to lay in wait for it, patiently, instinctively, calmly and be ready to grab it when Grace lays it down in front of you."
