Understanding Walking Speed

Your walking speed is a key indicator of fitness and health. Regular walkers who track their speed can see improvements over time as they build cardiovascular endurance and leg strength.

Speed Categories Explained:

Casual (2.0-2.9 mph):

Leisurely stroll, window shopping pace

Moderate (3.0-3.9 mph):

Daily exercise, health maintenance

Brisk (4.0-4.4 mph):

Fitness walking, cardio benefits

Power (4.5-4.9 mph):

Athletic training pace

Race (5.0+ mph):

Competitive walking, race pace

⚠️

Terrain Matters!

Walking on hills or rough terrain significantly increases effort. A 3.5 mph pace on steep hills is equivalent to a much faster pace on flat ground. Don't compare trail speeds directly to flat road speeds!
