After those just 10 minutes of walking, hopefully we got somewhere close to maybe 0.7, 0.8 or even a full mile. You can log this as an indoor walk. Stand up and switch. Left heel digs forward. Hinge over. Say hello to your hamstrings. Flex the toe up towards the sky and breathe. Okay, so maybe somewhere in between 0.7 and one full mile in 10 minutes. That's all you need.
