On Saturday, 22 walkers bravely tackled a partly new walk route! It was a trial run for the 10 mile 3 Day Expo training walk the hotties will lead on June 7th. Our virgin trek up the Moraga mosaic stairs (wowie!) and climb up to the top of Grand View Park (double wowie!) was spectacular. Hello lungs, hello quads, hello views!!! "Did we go up just to come back down again?" Laurie asked as we made our way down the backside if Grand View Park. Linda's reply... "Yup!" [insert evil training walk leader cackle here - see walk photos from Joel.] We ambled down "Lover's Lane" back to Crissy Field where we were greeted by 8,000 Girl Scouts participating in the Bridging Ceremony.
On Sunday, the crabbers were already at the Warming Hut when we arrived. We had 15 walkers - great job Jeff and Andrea for hitting the road again after Saturday's spectacular mosaic stairs walk! We saw some familiar faces and long-time Hotties, and met new people. After a chilly start, it warmed up. When we headed back to the Warming Hut along Crissy Field, we saw lots of families celebrating Mother's Day - one 2-year old boy in particular who said his name was "Little Dawggy" and then went for a dunk in the cold bay water.
Next Saturday we will have a very special clinic! Deborah Bowes, PT and Feldenkrais Practitioner has graciously offered to lead us in a "stretching for walkers" clinic before our walk.
6:45am: Sign in & hear the Safety Speech.
7:00am - 7:25am: Clinic
7:30am: Walk will depart!
Upcoming Walks - Remember to please RSVP:
Sat 5/17 – Clinic/12 miles – 6:45am - Warming Hut – Approx Finish: 12:30am
Sun 5/18 – 10 miles – 7:00am – Warming Hut – Approx Finish 11:00am
*Avon Walkers Special Note: Per request, Saturday, June 14th we will have 22 mile day: a 12 mile loop followed by a 10 mile loop. We want to make sure you get one big 20+ mile day in before your event! It is exactly one month before the SF walk so the timing will be great. We will walk the 12 mile loop, break for lunch (pack sack lunches) and then we’ll start out on the 10 mile loop at approx. 1:00pm.
We invite you to join the Warming Hut Hottie Team! Unlike many college courses there are no prerequisites except having the heart of a hottie:
For the Avon Walk. Email the teams coordinator at teams.sanfrancisco@avonwalk.org and ask to be added to the team.
For the 3 Day: Call 800.996.3DAY or email bayareacoaches@the3day.org to be added to the team.
