Fleetwood & 15 km

Last saturday I got to travel a little closer to home.  The area is called Fleetwood and it took me 20 minutes to get there.  The group was a little smaller this day, some due to injuries others away on holiday. 

Couldn't have asked for a better day tho! It was beautiful, sunny and fairly warm.  Yay! no rain!  Made for fabulous walking.  Have to admit tho - this route had a few hills in it and that was a bit of a challenge for me and my legs :)   Lucky I wasn't the only one so I still had a walking buddy.

This walk took us thru some subdivisions while making our way from one park trail to another to get 15 km in.   Many of the group use walking poles.  It is supposed to help ease the pressure on your knees and joints and give an upper body workout too.   I don't have any and so far don't feel the need.  Although I was told it sure helps on those hills!  I might have to invest in a pair.

Well, tomorrow is a new day and another 15km walk... until then...
