A fast walk (6,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hunger march

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'a fast' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot see how they can define each other.

'walk' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'walk' could be 'march' (march is a kind of walk) and 'march' is present in the answer.
The remaining letters 'hunger' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for hunger march that I've seen before include "movement that brings protest" , "1936 Jarrow demonstration" .)
