I'm going to spend the summer in Denali, in Alaska, mountaineering. To get in better climbing shape, I've switched from jogging and running to walking on the treadmill. I set the incline as steep as it will go, and then the speed to a very brisk walk. DAMN! That is HARD!! I only covered 4 miles in the hour, but I was seriously beat, and soaked right through.

It is an awesome workout though! Highly recommended for those that thinking walking is for wussies...
