foot-slog
Walk long, tired
To foot-slog is to march or walk laboriously, especially over a long distance: We foot-slogged through mud for hours.
The term evokes military marches or tedious hikes—steady, unglamorous progress on foot.
A foot-slog is such a trek.
Someone who foot-slogs is a foot-slogger.
