Yeah, from having to walk behind all these slow m.f.ers. I can’t even imagine what kind of slow-motion hell The Flash lives in, having to sit through Zootopia sloth conversations evvvvvvvveeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrryyyyy ffffffffuuuuuuuuuccccccccckkkkkkkiiiiiiiinnnnnngggggg dddddddddaaaaaaayyyyyyyyy.
Every 1 km/hour increase in walking speed was associated with a 9% lower risk of type 2 diabetes, with the minimal threshold of 4km/hour equal to 87 steps/min for men and 100 steps/ min for women, the findings suggest.
it is pretty stressful when I'm trying to get somewhere and I'm slowed down by someone who is walking too slow for my pace but too fast for me to overtake them, especially when I have to cross the road many times.
This may sound a little... odd, but it changed me, and I think on it from time to time.
Reading some old Star Wars book decades back, maybe the Thrawn series? One of the Imperial commanders was taking his time, strolling to where he was going.
Because, he thought to himself, people in a hurry were not happy where they were, always rushing about to get somewhere else. We was perfectly content where he was.
So interesting as I intentionally walk slower now. There's something cathartic about watching people pass you constantly knowing nothing they're going to is that important in the grand scheme of things.

Type 2, fast walker here. I walk for my health and I enjoy the cardio and feeling.
You know who's really unhappy?
People in sports cars.
I mean... Think about it. Walking fast is still slower than almost all other means of transport. People in cars must always be grumpy as hell.

Anyhow, something to think on.
