The Fall 2024 Couch to 5K Walking Program concluded with the Walk to End Alzheimer's on Saturday, September 28th.

Because the walk was only about two miles, we counted the walk from the car, the walk back to the car, and the extra walk around the block so that we can say truthfully that we walked a 5K!

Currently, more than 6 million Americans are living with Alzheimer's. You will make an impact with your donation. Your kindness and generosity truly make a difference in the fight against Alzheimer’s and all other dementia.

Please donate through our team to end this devastating disease. Thank you for your support!

Soft Trail Stroll is a series of free walks designed to help people who are looking for a simple way to become more active and to increase appreciation of our local soft trails.

Now is a great time of year to join us as we watch the colors change. Walks are typically one-and-a-half to two-and-a-half miles. We always set a pace to accommodate everyone. It’s a stroll! No one is left behind.

Details for each route are available by clicking the graphics.

My YouTube channel also has Follow-Alongs, Exercise Demos, and Movement Snacks.

Whether you are 55… 75… 30… or any age, you've probably noticed that some things aren't as easy as they used to be. That might be climbing the stairs, putting the heavy platter in the top cupboard, or riding your bike all day.

I can design a program for you that takes into account what you do and improves what you need, so you can succeed at what you want to do.
