    My opinion? Moderate walking is 3 mph/20 minute miles/10 minute half miles/5 minute quarters.
    Brisk walking is 4 mph/15 minute miles/7:30 half miles/ 3:45 quarters.
    Enjoy your walk.

    Brisk would be getting a bit breathless and a bit of sweat on your brow. What pace brings that on is down to you.
