Greetings!
Summer has arrived in the Pacific Northwest as of July 4th. What glorious weather it is! I am definitely enjoying my walks & other fun out door activities. This is a favorite time as the farmers markets explode with blueberries, raspberries and strawberries. Peaches are next. These fresh greens, kale, chard, spinach, collards, are readily available. Yummy. June was a fun month as I had the opportunity of presenting all things walking for employees at Portland General Electric, WebTrends and Pacific Natural Foods.

Walking is a big deal, because almost everyone can do it.
It is easy, health promoting-and an exercise that is what you want it to be. It can be a fun, age-defying activity; leisurely and high performance.
- Do you walk & /or run with ease?
- Or, are you feeling stuck at a 'plateau' with your flexibility or your movement?
- Have you been told you should exercise?
- Do you ever feel that you wished you weren't getting older?
