At the Beijing University of China this month, a doctoral student representative named Zhuo said on stage that he could walk nearly 100,000 steps in half a day, but was suspected by netizens and experts and bragged, which was not in line with reality.

At the graduation ceremony of Beijing University a few days ago, the outstanding doctoral student representative Zhu Fangdong went to the stage to speak, saying: "Due to the limit on WeChat's movement steps, 98,800 steps is only my half-day step." He has climbed the world's highest Mother Peak.

Regarding the WeChat movement limit, a father and son walked from Qingshima to Lianyun Port last year. They left for 16 hours in the early morning and walked 98,800 steps, and the pedometer stopped moving.

Many netizens suspected that Wang Fang Dong was too disgusted, and some people calculated that he had to walk 100,000 steps for 12 hours. Dr. Xie, a sports expert, said that 100,000 steps equals 80 to 100 kilometers. Compared to two marathons, it takes 10 hours to run for one hour and 10 kilometers. It is not inconsistent with common sense to run two marathons in half a day.

Dr. Xie said that according to his usual sports, about one hour and one thousand steps. If you follow Jiang Fangdong's words, it is equivalent to walking ten hours a day. This is more like a situation of running quickly or running a rush with a team or a rushing army. It is not impossible to achieve, but it is not very reasonable.
