Estimated Duration: 333 days

To walk around the Earth's equator (approximately 40,075 km), you would need to maintain a steady pace of about 5 km/h without breaks. Factoring in rest, sleep, and terrain challenges, the journey could take 1.5-2 years. Proper preparation, endurance training, and logistical planning (like food, water, and visas) are essential for such an extreme trek. Few have attempted this feat, and success depends on physical fitness, route selection, and weather conditions.
