This is a fantastic idea, and exactly what this group is for: getting
connected with people in your neighborhood who have similar walking
goals and getting out there on those walks!
Our planned walks have been longer and more strenuous, but we love
this feedback and will plan to incorporate some shorter walks as
well. In the meantime, if there is anyone else in this group
interested in going for shorter walks, please write back and let's get
a discussion going about where and when you would like to walk - we
may be able to get some informal walks going before the next planned
one!
