Oh, I must have missed that. Was wondering what the difference is between walking and hiking? Does where you walk dictate whether you're hiking or not?
Hey if this is working for you GREAT! I personally would be concerned that the majority of your fitness work is with your lower body, but this is obviously a personal choice and I'm not here to judge, especially if you're successful.
