Hi Maryque. Don't overdo it! You can do more harm than good that way. The secret of fast walking is to push yourself to the limit, meaning go as fast as you can. Distance means nothing! If you find that you can only walk for ten minutes at the fastest pace before feeling pooped, then stop at that point. Don't walk every day, your muscles will need a full day to recover from high level exercise. You should be able to add an additional 5 minutes to your time after each two weeks of walking. Don't be impatient.
