Hi guys, I would like to tell you all about a way to exercise, make a difference for the community and feel great doing it. I decided to do the NY AIDS walk this year in memory of my uncle of the same name and a family friend who died of AIDS. This is an important cause and I was very happy to walk the 6.2 miles (mostly up hill) for the cause. I wanted to be in better shape, especailly since I am constantly working towards a healthier lifestyle and took a walk everyday that ranged from 2 to 5 miles. I plan to continue to walk at least 2 miles a day. I raised $270 and had a great time.
So I urge you all to do a walk for a cause that you believe in. You will have a great time, get in shape, and feel great! We had a great opening and ending ceremony with many guest spoeakers and performances. Go ahead and do it and you'll be so glad that you did. I can't wait to walk again next year and my goal is to raise $500!
Great advice! We're getting ready to do an Autism Awareness Walk with our friends who just found out that their son has Autism.
