There are no requirements to get involved, and no dues to pay. The mission of FitWalk is to inspire, promote, and support walking & rucking and help strengthen the community through Social Fitness. FitWalk is great for beginners. Intermediate and Advanced participants can add a ruck to your walk for additional fitness benefits. A ruck is simply a backpack with added weight. By adding resistance to
your walk, you'll improve your fitness and burn more calories than walking alone, all while maintaining a steady pace with the rest of the group. Rucking is optional, but if participants want to give it a try we recommend starting with 10-15 pounds for women, and 20-25 pounds for men. However, you are free to carry any amount of weight as you choose. Fitwalk is beginner-friendly, stroller-friendly, and pet-friendly. Pets must be on leashes and all attendees must adhere to pedestrian traffic laws. Also, please be courteous of others as we will be walking along public sidewalks and trails. Attending Meetups: Please wear light-colored (or reflective), comfortable clothing and appropriate footwear. ***Don't forget to bring water***
