General Walking Fitness
For opportunities to improve general walking fitness, check out the Oxfordshire Ramblers Association or the Oxford Fieldpaths Society. Some workplaces and sports facilities also organise power walking groups. Of course, with these groups, you aren't judged for proper heel and toe contact and keeping your knees straight! But they provide ways of improving your general walking fitness in company with others. |
Cross-training
Of course running (especially cross-country-running during the winter), cycling, weights work in a gym, yoga for flexibility, pilates for proprioception and core stability, and many other physical activities can bring benefits to the race walker. Contact the webmaster if you need more information. |
