Speed racer: How fast do you need to walk to get the health benefits? If walking 30 minutes per day, shooting for a 20 to 30 minute pace, is a good general goal if you're looking to reap the health benefits of walking. Just keep in mind: your biggest mile marker is your own progress.

Read More »Tick tock: How to calculate your walking time Apps like MapMyRun, FitBit (no band required), and Endomodo do the job of measuring distance and pace more accurately and easily than ever. You can also invest in watches from brands like Garmin and Apple that do almost everything except rub your feet after a long walk. A good old-fashioned stopwatch (or the digital stopwatch on your phone) also still serves the purpose. Keep in mind: One lap around a typical outdoor track is a quarter-mile and indoor tracks are typically one-tenth or one-twelfth of a mile. Let’s race: How long does it take to walk a race? Races aren’t just for runners. USA Track & Field (USATF), the national governing body for foot racing, recognizes a wide range of official race-walking distances including everything from your basic 5K (3.1 miles) to ultramarathons of 31 and 62 miles. But, you probably won’t want to walk 500 miles… Average walking time per race distance Distance Kilometers Miles Average time (minutes, hours) kilometer 1 0.62 0:16–0:23 mile 1.6 1 0:25–0:37 3K 3 1.86 0:47–0:68 5K 5 3.11 0:77–1:14 8K 8 4.97 1:24–1:82 10K 10 6.21 1:55–2:27 half-marathon 21 13.1 3:28–4:80 marathon 42 26.2 6:55–9:72 ultramarathon 50–161 31–100 7:75– 36:67 Speed racer: How fast do you need to walk to get the health benefits? If walking 30 minutes per day, shooting for a 20 to 30 minute pace, is a good general goal if you’re looking to reap the health benefits of walking. Just keep in mind: your biggest mile marker is your own progress. It’s helpful to have goals to inspire you and to hold yourself accountable to, but just getting out there (or onto a treadmill) is a win. Aiming to do better than you did yesterday is still a big step toward a healthier you. Research has found that even a small increase in walking can have big impacts on your overall health. Can walking a mile a day help you lose weight? Walking, especially speed walking, can be an effective way to manage your weight, but if you’re struggling to walk fast for the whole mile, don’t give up! Try alternating 30-second or 1-minute intervals of faster walking with 1 or 2 minutes at an easier pace. That’ll help you build endurance and provide some weight-management benefits of walking. There’s nothing magical about the mile. In fact, one study on sitting, standing, and walking found that it was actually spending less time sitting down that had the biggest impact on weight loss. If you have a 9-to-5 that has you stuck behind a desk all day, try spending some of your time standing or walking in place while you work. You could invest in a standing desk or try piling up some boxes under your laptop.

You don’t have to go all Hal from Malcolm in the Middle with a morph suit and aerodynamic helmet to get into it, either. According to the USA Track & Field, in order to qualify as “race walking” you need to keep contact with the ground at all times and your front leg has to be straight from the time your front foot hits the ground until it’s under your body. To begin training, you could start with a weekly goal of 10 or 15 minutes per day for 5 days and gradually increase time, distance, pace, and number of workouts as you gain strength and endurance. Before long, you’ll be walking at super speed for 30 minutes or more, no sweat.
A good rule of thumb is that people tend to notice your weight loss when you've lost around 10% of your starting weight, so if you started at...
