Smile Walking Groups or individuals

I know there is a class thats called walk away the pounds. Is there any other group or individual out there that walks in the hopes of eventually working up to a 5k?

Me! I've tried Walking Away the Pounds, but all the marching they do in those classes is too hard on my metatarsal caps, one of which I broke in Jazzercise years ago, and it never has recovered.

I love to walk on dry land (not treadmills) and would be interested in joining you. I walk my dog 3 miles several times a week. But he won't talk to me very much.

Looking for a walking club that isn't necessarily walking to loose weight just for fun and good excercise. Has a club like this ever formed ?

Are you here now, future villager? I am interested in a walking club too. I think Beth S was as well. I was supposed to contact her last summer, but it was sooooo hot in July and August. We are away till 10/20, but I would be interested when we come back.

Walkers outdoor group:
We would like to train to do a half marathon (13 miles). We are looking for fun walkers who do 16 minute miles that would like to train for the Virginia Bach half marathon or just meet early to walk/jog Happytimes

There's a group called Sole Mates. They train for lots of races. Mainly half marathons. They should be in the schedules you pick up @ any rec center

And thanks for a year punctuated by many smiles and laughs. Have a wonderful 2014.
