Walks - Saturday Dec. 2 - Wednesday Dec. 6

Join us on Saturday at Tim's at 8:00 am.  This is a great time to get out and walk - especially if you haven't been out for a while - distance is yours to determine. Speed doesn't matter as long as you get your heart rate up. Coffee with friends is your reward.

Sunday walkers meet at the Running Room on Queen Street at 8:30 am.
Mid week day time walk leaves from Nishe's at 900 am. Let us know if you want to be included in the organizing email with confirming location.
Mid week evening walks at 6:30 pm are Monday (Loblaws) and Wednesday (Occasions).
Sign up and join in.

Announcements:  from Libby - Rumour has it that Ruth has registered for the Hair of Dog with plans to beat Rainer... Rainer and Margy may be out of town this year which really increases a chance of victory for Ruth!.  Any others signing up? This is a great local race with a walking division and great lunch to kick off the New Year on January 1. Price increase December 15.  www.balmybeachcanoe/index.html

Anyone interested in races please let Libby know!

from Susan:  Any interest in a challenge for 2018? Any ideas for a challenge? Let's start a conversation to see if there are any ideas that appeal:
1. Hike 1 or 2 sections of the Bruce Trail during 2018 - there are 9 sections; each one varies in distance. Easy to arrange; beautiful hikes; can be done when the Bruce Trail offers end to end hikes (the club helps with the transportation). Best done in spring and fall.

2.  Amerithon - is a virtual walk across USA; can be done in teams or individually; can include distances done by walking, hiking, running, biking, swimming - you make the rules; form your own team; no time limit to complete the entire route. There is a website which has information. Is an interesting idea with virtual fly over and maps of the USA so you can map your progress.
