Nervous first year walker
Permalink  

no This is my first year walking and I am walking alone and I am starting to get a bit nervous now.  So I am hoping maybe there is someone who wouldn't mind some company to walk with.  I'm a medium paced walker I guess I average about 5.5k/hr on my practice walks most of the time.  I'm walking both days.  Thanks  smile.gif

Hey Melissa - dont worry if you dont have a walking partner - you will find one or many along the route - everyone is very friendly and fun and i know when i walked we often found new friends along the route and met ppl even at breakfast so just smile and say hi to ppl and you will find many friendly faces willing to walk with you

i will be on the route too - as motosafety - im the biker with the pink mohawk helmet so make sure you say hello to me as you pass!!!!

you are about to have the most amazing experience and im always excited for the first timers since i remember how my first weekend changed my life :) 

see you out there!!   Melanie aka Motorcyclemohawk!!!

Hi Melissa Ann,
I am also a first time walker and was walking alone.  Last week a group of us who are walking alone joined together.  There are 4 of us.   You are more than welcome to join us!  I am the only one tenting out of the 4 so if you are too maybe we could tent together?
My email is alaina_mike@rogers.com.
Email me and we can work out the details!

Alaina

PS.  I am also 29 and a mother of 2.
