Avoid wearing casual flip flops or high heel shoes.

Keep yourself hydrated at all times by consuming plenty of water as you walk.

Seek the help of the first walkathon guide you see if you feel tired, uneasy or unwell.

Take plenty of rest the night before and make sure you do some light exercise to warm up those muscles before the walk.

Bring your sunglasses and apply sun screen to protect your eyes and skin.
