No real instructions.  I have bad knees from bicycle vs car encounters.  I walked my races this year and am slowly trying to gain strength in the knees over the winter.  How long is the race?  Can you speedwalk?

Ask Karen KSH here on BT she has done some clinics and can point you in the right direction.
