A member asked:

What are good ways to prepare for the avon walk for breast cancer?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Training: I am not an exercise specialist. It depends on how far and how long you are walking. Longer distance walking needs preparation & proper training far enough in advance to avoid injuries. Join a group to train for the event. Consider getting a trainer for the group who specializes in long distance walking or running.
