Since I'm mostly walking now, I've switched my long runs to "urban hikes" where I just pick a direction and walk. The furthest I've done is 20 miles and that's really hard on the feet. I keep wanting to do a 26 mile walk, but I don't have it in me right now.

Come down here to sea level where it’s flat and you might be able to gain a few miles, Kevin! I remember the week before my first marathon (in Cincinnati in 2022) I was up there in Denver for a conference and that was a harder place to run, with the altitude and hills!😀
But, yeah, feet get sore regardless!
