I started training by walking on a machine, at a rythm of 7:36ish and its legit making my runs faster. I usually walk around 20 minutes and if I cant endure that much time I at least try to reach the 2.5 KM mark
Sorry for my bad english, Im spanish
Why run? Fitness and Race Walking is by far better helpful and not harmful to legs, knees and feet. You get a total body work out not just your legs and arms. My orthopedic doctor said the only benefit is good cardio and you get there quicker in running or jogging. It takes good training and practice to obtain the correct technique.
My old friend. Please come to Switzerland and do the Sierre Zinal race. Would be great to see you again and maybe have a beer. Bring the team. felly.
Can all contributors please note, that comments containing obscenities will be deleted, whether or not I agree with the sentiment.
I’m starting out again and I run until I can’t anymore, then walk for 1 minute. Then run again
Walking is the foundation of my exercise routine without it I wouldn’t be in the shape I’m in today at all
Funny how if you just go slow enough and easy enough over the course of months (or years eventually), you just magically find yourself to be very good at what you’re doing. Unfortunate that it doesn’t “feel” like we’re making progress in the moment. I suspect it’s largely a cultural thing. Gotta chill out!
The typical white woman walking in the morning at 5:30AM in a suburb.
yay the ostrich is winning the race thumbs up if you know its a flamingo
totally agree with walking as equal part of running. I do about one third of my training ( about 60 miles per week in total training) as walking, mainly with the dog, and i am at age 65 fitter than 20 years ago, and even more important injury free the whole time.
Ian Sharman is always emphasizing the value of walking too. And he posts his own to Strava. There is probably something to it:)
The guy in the slow motion intro is cheating. There are a few steps where he has BOTH feet off the ground and this would get him disqualified.
Thank you for your contribution George. The question of slow-motion analysis is discussed below.
Thanks for the video! Do you ever see bears in your area? I live in Anchorage Ak, and we have been getting a lot of them in our trails. Kinda freaking me out!!!
I agree. Quite a few of them are not in a ‘double contact phase.’ They are clearly (in video-both slow motion and not) lifting. A problem with the newer race walking technique and the rules. Also, do the rules really require straightening from the moment of contact? Only as it passes under the body, as I recall (maybe erroneously, though).
It’s so true, when I had an extremely demanding job and I stopped running, I was actually faster when I started again.
Good for your knees? Are you kidding? Race walking is one of the hardest sports on your knees.
I have watched this episode 10s of times and will continue to do so. There are lots of moments and skills that I have picked up and incorporated in “my race walk.” It is fun-sport for me; improving my health in all aspects. It has been exactly two year in Jan-17. I can rotate my waist and hips. What a difference speed and movement and most of all stress buster. Thank you for posting.
Really strange watching this after competing in the main event. The weather is so calm here with clear views! It’s almost like a different walk!
