Summer Goals and Buddy System

The Walk It challenge is over, but that doesn't mean that we are done walking or moving altogether. It's time to set new goals, maybe look for new activities, and make sure that we keep on moving.

Several of us committed to doing 3 cardio work outs this week. I'm well on my way to being done! How about you?

What are you summer activity goals?

Is summer a time where you tend to move more? How are you going to take advantage of that in your weight loss efforts?

Do you tend to move less in the summer? How are you going to offset that?

It's time to think my friends. Time to thing and to make a plan.

Looking for a walking/running/exercise buddy?

As I have explained in most, if not all, of my meetings, I am not committing to walking every week like I did for the Walk it Challenge, BUT if you want to find a walking partner, or a work out buddy, don't be afraid to chime up during the meeting and to email me. I'll be more than happy to post your appeal on the blog. This is for you!

We didn't take a lot of pictures, and those we did take, we took with our cellphones, so no great photography there (Jackie, you're the pro, so I know you're probably cringing ;op)

But here's a few pictures from our Crissy Fields Walks, and from Bay to Breakers.

Enjoy!

Crissy Fields:

Dan and I parked at Fort Point every week, right by the Golden Gate Bridge. :o)

Our bunch one Saturday. That was one of my favorite too, sailboats, Wave organ, beautiful weather, perfect!

Irina wanted to see the Wave organ so we made it there!

Feels like the end of the world doesn't it?



This week, before the walk, I was climbing around on the rocks by Fort Point and this little dude paid me a visit. Or is it the other way around since I was the intruder...

Bay to Breakers!

Dan decided to be scary! Bought that mask right on the course!


The beach, FINALLY!

Are we there yet?


Loretta all proud to have finished the race! YAY! You made it!!

The party after the race, lots of street food, and booze.


I got my medal (and my t-shirt!). How neat is that?

I had a lot of fun walking with all of you for 6 weeks!! It's fun to get to talk to you outside of the meeting room.

Next year we do it again!

Walk It Challenge: Final Event!

WALK IT!

Emeryville

This is it! The WALK IT Challenge is culminating Sunday with the official Walk It event.

For more information about the walk in Emeryville Sunday May 22nd click on this :Emeryville, CA Walk

Crissy Fields

I am walking a 5K Saturday at Crissy Field with a few friends. We are meeting at Fort Point at 9am, will walk just past the Beach Hut Cafe (the new one) and back. That is exactly 5K.

The Crissy Field walk is just friends getting together to walk, not an official organized walk. You are welcome to walk with us, to bring your doggies and family.

Oh, and bring a fruit!!
