I have been an active outdoors person for my entire life.  In the last 33 years I have run over 70 marathons and ultra marathons.   I have also done many triathlons, the first one dating  back to the early 80’s.  I believe that any outdoor activity is beneficial…both to appreciating the outdoors in all seasons and improving ones physical well being.  I enjoy leading our walking groups.  It’s so wonderful to see the enthusiasm and satisfaction that the participants get from our twice-weekly meetings.  Not only are we out there getting our exercise, but also seeing the changing scenes of the seasons and it’s especially easy to do with a group and a commitment
