The Gears

Gear 1 - Nice pace that you can do for extended periods.

Gear 2 - Faster pace gained through technique.  Expect Gear 2 at times throughout the walk.

Gear 2/3 - Faster again using technique and with less recovery.

I also list the length of the walk so you can make a judgement as to whether the walk is for you.
