Meet other local people who are interested in walking for fitness! We'll meet up to walk around Oak Park/River Forest/Forest Park and on local trails. We've also been known to do a little hiking, biking, eating and drinking as a group.

To lose weight and to keep it off, you need to get moving. Walking at a moderate pace for 30-60 minutes burns stored fat and can build muscle to speed up your metabolism. Walking an hour a day is also associated with cutting your risk of heart disease, breast cancer, colon cancer, diabetes and stroke. Isn't it time to work 1-hour walks into your busy lifestyle?

      “ Hi, John: Sorry I forgot to upload the group photo next to the Mill for you. It is uploaded now. Yours came out nice. I walked back from the parking lot to the Mill. Half way, I caught that blue heron scene. ”
