- Q How do I train for a long walking event?
- A Whatever the size or distance of your walking challenge, you need to follow a structured training plan – and give yourself sufficient time to complete it. Make sure you increase your distances gradually and build up your levels of endurance. Your training should, where possible, include some walking in the conditions similar to those you’ll be facing on your event. So that means going out in your walking gear; fully kitted out for your challenge, and getting used to the different walking surfaces and conditions, particularly if you are doing an event that requires you to spend a portion of your time walking at night.
