Wednesday Walks
Join us on Saturday, at Tim's, at 8:00 am, for a walk with friends. Any distance is good distance - but be sure to pick up the pace - see article below. Last week, a few folks walked in the Port Union area - a nice walk and change of scenery, I understand. Thanks to Sharon for the suggestion.

A new study suggests that slow walkers may age quicker than fast walkers — and you're born one or the other. There's bad news for slow walkers. Walking speed isn't actually a preference - a Duke University study found that you're pretty much born a slow or fast walker. Your walking speed as a 45-year-old can show the state of your physical and cognitive aging. According to the study, spanning 40 years, slow walkers had "older" brains, and were more likely to have "accelerated physical aging." - source: Apple News.

Great photos of wonderful walkers! I won't be out Saturday morning, as I'm continuing my volunteer training at the Toronto Zoo. I haven't seen a unicorn there yet, but I see that Lou-Ann has! Happy walking everyone!
I'm pretty sure we'll be out on Saturday at 8, weather permitting. I guess we'll see in the morning!
I won't join you on Saturday this week - not feeling well. Hope to be back in action next week.
Walking in the cold is one thing; walking in the rain and cold is another. If it isn't raining, I'll be out with a friend or two in tow.
SKJ
I will be out if there is no rain
Leverne
We will be there if it is not raining too hard..
Margy
I'll just echo Margy's comment.
Get well Susan!
Olwyn, you always find the most fun things to do. Hope you do see a unicorn.
Ruth
I will not be there tomorrow, out picking up gingerbread supplies...however, I am registered now for the 5K Fishy and 5K Riverfront in Dunnville (May 8 & 9)...hope we get some more to register, would be a fun weekend!
I won't be out this week or next. Hopefully Wednesday. Looking forward to seeing everyone on the 9th in my party room. Have a great weekend everyone.
The Monday walkers will shift to the evening this week. 6:30 at Loblaws, as long as it isn’t raining.
I'll be out if the weather co-operates.
To (hopefully) avoid the rain, we're moving the Monday night walk up a bit earlier to 6 pm. Still at Loblaws. Just a quick 6K.
I think only Bob and I can walk early on Wednesday morning, so we’ll join the 9 am group at Tim’s.
