This is a dog friendly group for women in Palo Alto who would like to walk early weekday mornings before work and support each other to lose weight. We will do easy to moderate 2-3 mile walks at a steady pace and go faster when the group gets more fit and feels ready. I have found that having walking partners and a support group is very helpful to establish getting up and out and establish a routine. The vision for this group is to walk 3-4 times a week between 7:00-8:00 a.m. in the South Palo A …

I enjoy walking, hiking and meeting new people and am looking for some folks (both female and male between the ages of 35-65) who enjoy the same things. If you'd like to make some new friends while getting a little exercise, this group is for you. As of now, I plan on scheduling walks for at least once a week (early enough in the day to end before dark). This schedule could expand to additional days or short weekend hikes (probably on Sunday afternoons) if there is enough interest and participat …

“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. …

When we started several years ago, our goal was to explore Silicon Valley (aka "The Valley of Heart's Delight"), in part to show people there was more to the Bay Area than San Francisco.  Now we've visited just about every local museum from Gilroy to Santa Cruz to Millbrae, so we tend to journey farther afield for cultural/historical walks and day trips.  Our events include mundane after-work "well, it's better than just sitting on the couch" walks in local neighborhoods as well as more ambitiou …

We want to share that with anyone else who is working to become more active.

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 …
