Great sport but you have to learn how. Running is natural but Race Walking has to be learned. Started learning in January 2008 by sending away for DVD's and a couple of Race Walking books. I'm up to 6 miles now and increased my speed up to a 13.5 mile. My goal is to maintain a 12 minute pace for 5 miles. My first race is a 5 Mile course on the 4th of July. If you have some training hints let me know. any would be appreciated. You can check me out by my training schedule. cowboy

It looks like a race in slow motion.

 I am sure it takes skill and athleticism, but the walking seems like an unnecessary restriction. In all other races you are not limited, you simply go as fast as you can while pacing yourself based on the distance of the race.
