Walks - Sat. Aug. 8 - Wed. Aug. 12


Join us on Sat. at Tim's at 7:30 am. Distances vary depending....New Albany and Corning walkers walk 16K this weekend for their long distance training. Scotia is 12K and Niagara is 10K. Hopefully the weather cooperates and it is not too hot for long walks.  Remember those training love company on their walks. And, as always, distance is always of your choosing. 

Mid-week day time walks are organized by Lou Ann. Evening walks at 7:00 pm on Monday (Loblaws) and Wednesday (Occasions). Sign in so others know your plans. Weekday training should include at least one 8K walk for most and New Albany 10K.

Announcements - from Rainer - With just slightly more than one month to go before the start of the 11th annual New Albany Walking Classic, preparations are in full force. Sign up and join in the fun on Sept 13th.

Hi Everyone, I hope you are all enjoying this nice weather. Although I'm back from vacation I can't make it out tomorrow but I'm planning on joining very soon!
I'm so interested in registering for a 2016 marathon.....Cleveland looks very tempting! Is anyone interested? I need the commitment to get this butt moving!

I hope to join the group tomorrow - I said that last week and then decided to sleep in - time to redeem myself.

Alexis - you might convince me,...

Hmm weather does not look promising for this evening. If it's raining I won't be going out.

Helen said...

No, weather radar map doesn't look promising for Monday night. Will check again later.

Bob, Jan and I walked on Wednesday morning this week, so we won't be out tonight.

However, Trish has organized a group walking on Thursday evening at 6:30 pm from Occasions this week (in case the evening walkers want to shift by a day -- or walk two days in a row).
