I hiked the Camino de Santiago about ten years ago, taking ~6 weeks to do 600 miles. Exhaustion really isn't the issue, you reach a steady state. The bigger risk is repetitive stress injury - I came back with a numb spot on my hip that took a few years to go away. I also came back married, but that one hasn't gone away.

- antihero 5y agoWhy do people still make jokes like this about marriage? It seems very outdated.

- helloworld11 5y agoBecause people like to joke about things that are common causes of little problems (and sometimes big ones) to so many of us in life. What exactly is so outdated about it? or the real fact that marriage is a marathon sometimes?
- raducu 5y agoYou can go to any place, anywhere on Earth, at any point in time, make a joke about marriage and some human will get it. Not on HN though :)
