It All Started With Just One Step… WalkingConnection.com

On November 1st I will celebrate having walked

every day in a row for 4 years! Whoo Hoo!

It started out as a 30-day goal just to get myself back on track! Well it turns out that one day leads to another and another….More than a few times along the way I told Gene (my husband and co-founder of the Walking Connection) that I didn’t feel like walking anymore. He would just respond by saying, “So tomorrow morning you are going to say Day 1, Whoo Hoo!?” Yep he always knows how to get me going, in a good way of course So here I am with almost four full years of days – of walks – of hikes – of miles, sometimes only ten minutes, but an accomplishment none-the-less. WOW! I really did this and now I want to share this milestone with everyone! To celebrate I am inviting all of my friends from around the world to go for at least a 10-minute walk (run, bike, swim – just be active) on November 1. It can be anywhere, any place YOU are. It doesn’t have to be far or fast, just walk with a purpose. Just Walk for YOU!
