In this episode of Running to the Castle Dr. Ali discusses how fast to walk during run/walk intervals.
She gives examples from slow, back of the pack runners training for runDisney races and what running paces and walking paces could be to achieve a 15 minute per mile average training pace.
Dr. Ali discusses the importance of using the same walking pace during a variety of training runs such as the long, easy runs or short, speed workouts like 30-20-10 or Tempo runs.
She advises against walking too fast to boost your overall pace if it means you can’t complete the training run or race.
