500 Mile Journey

500 Mile Journey As the snow begins to melt and the Spring sun comes out Kerry and I are back to training for this years 5k races.  Our first race will be in Idaho Falls the end of April.  Paces for Payton  https://www.pacesforpayton.org/ This is the very first race I walked after my knee surgery. Back then I signed up for the 1 mile and believe me I felt very accomplished to walk the 1 mile.  Years later Kerry and I have signed up and walked nearly 10 races.  We usually do 3-5 each year and they are mostly destination events for us. That way we have a little vacation and help the community too.  I have designed Walking Journey T-Shirts to help me stay motivated.  Please visit my online store.  Both women and men shirts  https://www.zazzle.com/collections/walking_journey_t_shirts-119561391246098934?rf=238392465965343686  Be Inspired, ~jean

I love this new series. It's a great hobby to share with your family.

500 Mile  Journey with  Kerry and Jean  Let's Get Walking!  Part of the Journey for us is traveling to new places. Wherever the destination is we will be walking!  We walked through the Van Damme State Park, Redwoods.  This was our first walk in the redwoods.  We were so impressed with the tall trees, of course,  but look how green the plants are.  So many plants, so many different colors of green.  I felt like this could have been one of the most healing walks we've been on.  The trails on this walk were well maintained and easy to walk. The Fern Canyon Trail is a 7.7 mile moderately trafficked loop trail located near Little River, Ca. The trail is primarily used for hiking, walking, nature trips and birding . We didn't walk that far. What we did was walked 1.5 up and 1.5 back so we did our 3 miles walk. Which was plenty to get the feel of the trees and the environment. enjoy a little videos of the trail.  https://ww

Make a wish in the tunnel, it's always a good idea. On our travels when went through the Carlin Tunnels. It's a little ritual of mine to make a wish when I drive through tunnels.

Good Morning, After the Solar Eclipse which was totally awesome. I needed some time to process what my astrological sign said was going to happen after the eclipse! Taking Two Minutes In Nature to meditate on this is always a good idea. Be Inspired, ~jean
