I watched the long walk and now I’m reading the book. I was wondering, how credible is the distance? It’s 300 to 400 miles. What would happen to your body on the way?

    Our ability to keep carrying on is what makes us unique. Most animals will eventually get so tired that their body literally shuts down and they can’t proceed any further. Early humans used this to their advantage when hunting.
