“This is a group for anyone interested in walking, Friday night activities, coffee, chatting about life etc. All skills levels are welcome. I started this group because I thought it would be nice to get outside more and because I am terrible at making Friday night plans so being a single gal, I often am cooking something up last second or not up to anything. It seems like a walk and then a beer or coffee would be a nice way for people to make friends, get outside, and enjoy this beautiful city. …

Our meet-up group is for getting together with others to enjoy going for walks in our neighborhood, while at the same time getting to meet our neighbors. We've got Golden Gate Park, the Arboretum, the de Young and the bandstand, for just a few walks. We could also take advantage of all the wonderful restaurants and cafes in our neighborhood.

These mission-to-mission walks are open to all who enjoy nature, art, history. And walking. Though many of the walks are between 16-22 miles, they're set at a reasonable pace and are easy to train for. Why'd You Start the Group? Long story short: In March 2011 I walked 330 miles of the Camino de Santiago, a 1,200 year-old pilgrimage route in Spain. I lived with very little for 3 weeks. I experienced nature, art, and history. I met people from all around the world on the same simple quest - to r …
