1. It All Started With Just One Step…

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
