Training walk wih poles

I just got back from a walk (Sue came on her bike!), first time I have gone any distance using poles (15k) - actually, they do work, it's a very natural motion in any case, the only "technique" is to plant the pole slightly behind you so that when you push with your arm you propel yourself forward rather than up - it's up to you how hard you push, more arm = less leg.

Let's us know how the walk goes tomorrow.
