This sport is all about overcoming challenges. It can be a participation in an organized event such as a marathon or a personal challenge such as walking the eco-trail in the shortest time. The important thing is to approach each walk as a sporting endeavor, to have a goal and to go as fast as you can.

Sport walking is a good idea for a hobby if you work in an office or if you have impaired mobility due to which you cannot exercise something with a greater load.

In your daily training, you can focus on becoming more durable and fast, or improve your walking style to become more efficient.

Your gait should be stronger than normal walking, and your steps should be larger. You should also set speed goals, although it will vary depending on your fitness level.

Regardless of your distance or experience, your approach will be like any other sport. First, the goal is to go as fast as possible. Next, to train, look for how to improve your performance, optimize the gear you use, further develop your walking style. All these elements will bring you closer to achieving better results.

When you start, you will need a fitness tracker because you will need to measure distance. When you see your pace improve and you are able to maintain it over longer distances, it will help you reach your goals.

You don't need any specialized equipment, you only need to get comfortable shoes and you can start practicing sport walking in some beautiful place where you will also enjoy the scenery around you.
