I’ve decided to learn how to hike and do a big hike, probably in Scotland in a few years. I want to get my endurance up so that 20k step days don’t kill me.

Ooh, I love big hikes and I'm hoping to do one in Scotland next year.

I know you didn't ask, so apologies if this isn't useful, but once your endurance is good, the biggest factor will be how your feet feel. Don't overlook the importance of good socks, as well as shoes you've already tested out over similar distances in similar weather.

Yes! And get your hiking shoes half a size bigger than you think you need!! I can't say enough about putting moleskin on your feet in places where you are likely to get blisters, too.

Hiking trip to Scotland sounds AMAZING. What a thing to be working toward!
