Just up your calorie intake to suit the extra energy expenditure

**if your not gaining weight then add more food, its the only way to combat hard labour jobs. As for building bigger quads i dont think walking will do anything (other than definition).. U need progressive overload

It really shouldn't cut in to your gains as Long as you're counting calories and are in a caloric surplus. As for building up your quads...no. Calfs if anything, but really what's 7/8ths of a mile.

If you're concerned about the calories burned hop on a treadmill and walk out 7/8ths of a mile at the same pace. Record calories burned and adjust diet as needed.

To be honest though you're over thinking it

Besides right before a meet I do cardio year-round bulking or cutting for general health. It's fine as long as you adjust your calories to make up for it.
