The Story

Get ready to put some mileage on those shoes, because this walkathon is just getting started.

As you all know, this idea formulated when Divya mentioned that she had a friend who walked a mile for every year that he was old as an annual endeavor.

          Of course, everyone is absolutely welcome to walk the distance of their age in miles. But knowing that not everyone wants to do that (looking at our friends hitting their 30s), we will also accept the 26.2 of a marathon, and that's pretty cool too!
        

Our plan is to speedwalk between snacks and hydration from east to west and west to east. The route is still being determined, but the mission in our hearts is ready to hit the pavement!

Dependency

If the high in Kirkland on June 27th hits 82 degrees or above...

82°

Sorry no thanks, we're paddle boarding and having everyone over instead. 🫠
Juanita Beach, baby.

The Route

We are walking from Kirkland, to Bellevue, to Seattle, and back to Kirkland! The route is not quite 26.2 miles yet, but I am sure we can find a fun way to get that extra mile.

We can bus back from Yarrow Point, or if peeps are going for their 27-31 year/mile finish line, keep the party going!

If we have alt route suggestions, send them on over!
