Walking

I started my weight loss journey by walking every morning. I always enjoyed walking, even in the rain. When you walk instead of drive you get a whole new perspective on the world. Especially when you do it like I did... with kids. Through my walks I discovered a fantastic group that I had never heard of before... Volksporting. That is a walking group. I get emails every week about a walk that this group does all over the area. Sometimes it's really nice having the company of walking with a group. If you are in the Portland/Vancouver area and would like to know more about Volksporting, here is some information for you. Maybe I will see you on the trail one of these days. The walkoregon@yahoogroups.com group list exists to announce upcoming non-competitive volkssport walking, biking, and swimming events in Oregon and SW Washington These events are open to the public - everyone is invited, so pass this along to your friends. You can access the message at any time on the web, go to http://groups.yahoo.com/group/walkoregon We have a Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/OregonWalking and Twitter http://www.twitter.com/walkoregon You may also want to visit the official web sites of volkssport clubs in Oregon and Washington http://www.walkoregon.org http://www.esva.org AllThingsWalking Calendar of Oregon walking events -- volkssporting and more http://www.allthingswalking.com/calendar.html
