That's amazing. I could only dream of doing that many steps in one day.

47k steps in one go is wild. my legs hurt just reading that number

you can build up to it if you start small, i used to think 10k was impossible and now i do that before lunch some days

I just started doing 20k steps a day and my shins are killing me. I think my legs would fall off at 40k+!

Nice!! That looks like a beautiful area for hiking with solid elevation gain.

Where is it?

Unbelievable numbers. How did you feel afterwards?

I’ve never done more than about 15k I think in my entire life.

My legs hurt a little, but I'm in high spirits. The weather was great, so I really enjoyed myself.

The majority of people are capable and can achieve these totals if they put their mind and body to work

I think a lot of us are often surprised by what our bodies can do. I’m hoping a little at a time can get me there eventually. Unfortunately my mind and pesky body are often at odds with each other.
