Is it even possible to walk from Stockholm to Göteborg , I mean chances are that you are going to get run over by a car.
4 stops is also ridiculus, make it 6.

freekie · #23 07-02-2007, 04:42 AM

i think this is possible, if stops are counted as you sleeping, because if you walk across a gas station you could fill up ..... RIGHT?

i would never do because I IS LAZY

Unless your getting some good odds or freerolling, don't take the bet. It sounds easy enough, but staying away for 48 hours straight is hard enough, but walking the whole time... BTW what's the weather gonna be like while your doing this. What if it rains [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]. Maybe I missed it but how much is the bet for?

update:
We went over the route and it will be longer. It s 600km in 10 days. I m getting 3 to 1 for 10k and my part decreases 3k every 200km. So if I quit at 400km I pay 4k. I think 60km a day is doable. My dog would be coming with me. Do u think its doable?

It's doable, but then so are a lot of things.
Why not do something easier like chop of your hand, blend it then eat it. I'm sure thats worth about 30k around here

I think you've managed to swing this nicely in your favour money-wise the 3k decrease per 200km is a huge bonus.

There's no way I'd consider doing something like this but it'd be a great achievement if you pull it off.

Well that's 37 miles/day for 10 days. This is definately do-able if you are a very fit hiker and the terrain is easy. The chief problems (beyond fitness) are going to be injury/strain etc, so make sure you are very well prepared. Your feet are likely to be very sore on day 5 and foot pain or muscle strain is likely to be your downfall. Looking after your feet and any aches/pains at the end of each day will pay huge dividends and you would want to research this thoroughly and try to get tips/hints from other long-distance hikers.
