Walk Like an Athlete

At The FastWalker Group, our mission is simple: to empower you to “Walk like an Athlete” at our exciting FastWalker events, where you will not only have fun but also feel a deep sense of pride and accomplishment. When you attend one of our FastWalker events, you’ll feel the rush of walking faster than most, transforming your fitness and overall health in the process. By walking with FastWalker, you’re “Walking Faster,” “Getting Healthy,” “Losing Weight,” and “Becoming Strong.”

The FastWalker Group

is all about helping you build cardiovascular endurance,
improving your VO2 max, and helping you achieve fitness levels that turn heads.

Whether your goal is to participate in one of our FastWalker events or take your newfound speed to a triathlon or marathon, we assure you that your FastWalker abilities will stand out. As a FastWalker, you will be part of an elite group. Imagine the feeling of walking faster than others are running while turning heads in amazement!

The FastWalker website

is designed to inspire excitement for upcoming events in your area and provide the training resources you need to prepare. Our training programs designed by veteran Race Walking coaches will ensure you can walk faster than ever, and when you wear the FastWalker logo, you’re showing the world that you’re more than just a casual walker—you’re an athlete. You’ll feel healthier and stronger than ever, well on your way to being in the best shape of your life.

Most people walk at a pace of 2-3 miles per hour, which translates to a leisurely 20-30 minute mile. But as a Fastwalker, you’ll begin to excel at 4 miles per hour or 15-minute miles. You’ll truly start turning heads when you can walk faster than a 15-minute mile, pushing towards speeds of 12-minute miles or 5 miles per hour. And if you can walk a 10-minute mile, you’re nearing Race Walking territory. To put things into perspective, Olympic Racewalkers can walk 6-7 minute miles over distance, and the world record mile—held by Tom Bosworth of Great Britain—stands at an incredible 5 minutes and 31 seconds.

Our website and events

Will feature profiles of current and former Olympic race walkers, who will share their expertise and motivate you to reach new heights. Race walking is where we draw our inspiration from and has been an Olympic Track & Field event since 1904. It is often the punchline of a joke, as seen in the Chris Paul State Farm race walking commercial or Cary Grant's 1966 comedy Walk, Don’t Run'. However, walking a sub-six-minute mile is no laughing matter. With FastWalker, you’ll transform your abilities, turn heads and become a stronger, prouder you.

Join us at a future FastWalker Group event and take pride in walking faster, feeling stronger, living healthier, and most of all, Walking Like an Athlete!
