About the Distance Walk:
A virtual distance walk is one that you complete where ever you would like, and your distance is combined with others on your team, resulting in your total team distance. Walking teams can have up to 10 participants. Each participant chooses one day during the event window that they will do their walk. On this day, the participant records their distance for that one walk.  Individual walkers will report their distances, and compiled to determine the final team results.  This is meant to be a fun walk, one that is pet, family, wheelchair and even stroller friendly!

Simply register for the distance walk. Each walker will get a participation Tshirt shipped to the address you provide at registration. Then complete your distance walk any time between Friday, September 4 and 12:00 noon on Saturday, September 12, 2020. Post your distance to the online walk page, and join us for the LIVE event awards program online Sunday, September 13, 2020.
