This group is to get people outside and active this spring! People can join the group for a couple different reasons. They can join to use it as a progressive program, if they are interested in getting involved in local races. If someone has never done a race before, a wonderful way to begin is to start walking regularly! People can also join who would like to start some light exercise. Or, if people would just enjoy a leisure walk through the park!
