My last Volksmarch (this tour)

Becky and Rich picked me up for my last Volksmarch on this tour. While it is in the middle of winter and has been very cold it turned out to be a great walk. We walked the 10K trail and were very happy that there was no wind today! It was very nice to have some time alone with Becky before I leave. She has been a phenomenal friend!!! Thanks to both of you for all of your support and friendship!!!

Volksmarching (from German Volksmarsch meaning "peoples' march") is a form of non-competitive fitness walking that developed in Europe. Participants typically walk 10 kilometers (6.2 miles) on an outdoor path. Volksmarch associations offer incentive awards (usually pins and patches) for collecting a certain number of events. Volkssport participants enjoy recording distances and event participation in international record books.
