This is my first year doing this walk and it is pretty overwhelming to read all of the amazing stories from people who have done this walk previous years. I was supposed to be walking with a fellow co-worker but she has backed out, so now I will be on my own. I am a pretty shy person, does anyone have any advice on how to go about maybe joining someones group or meeting some fellow walkers prior to the big day? Any advice would be greatly appreicated. I cant wait to experience the joy that I keep reading about, what a feeling it is going to be!
Hi, if you are interested in meeting other walkers, check out the training walks listed on the home page. A group of us have an ongoing Sunday morning walk starting at Yonge and Bloor. You can contact the run co-ordinator at yonge-bloor walkers group on the training walks list. If that is not suitable, there are several in many other areas. I wish you the best. I am a first time walker myself as are others in my group.
