I constantly get comments about how fast I walk. Like, it’s not a run or a sprint—I walk kind of funny but other than that it’s a normal walking gait, just sped up. I walk so fast that when I have it in me, I can keep pace with my friends when they’re on their bikes.

I also like listening to metal or hard rock while I’m walking, and matching my pace to the drum beat or something. It makes me feel awesome.

Yeah, to the point that it can be frustrating to go on walks with people (for everyone involved). I'm not ay all in good shape, but whenever I go on hikes my natural walking pace is apparently a death march for most people so they have to ask me to slow down and then I end up feeling kinda restless. It seems like people equate walking fast with not being relaxed, but idk, it's just the speed I feel comfortable at and I walk that fast even if I'm strolling aimlessly.
