Walk Across America Plan

Starting September 1, 2006, we as a family will track our steps taken , convert them to miles, and apply them toward a walk from the California coastline to the east coast. We won’t *each* walk coast to coast, we’re going to combine our mileage together, sort of like a relay team. In a few months, we hope to have gone coast to coast. Join us in our adventures!

Here’s what the plan is:

1. Track your steps DAILY and record them.

2. Send a weekly total to me (Holli); either total steps taken for the week or total miles (either is fine).

3. Our goal is to increase our steps taken. We’re trying to get fit as we take our walk! So get up from your desk or take a walk after work.

4. I’ll send a weekly report by email and post it to the blog so we know where we are in America!

5. Each of you can post to the blog as well, with comments, ideas, thoughts, pictures, etc.

Here's the map and sketch of the trail we're taking. (Sorry we don't go through our towns. I didn't choose the route. If I had, we'd go through Scottsdale, Phoenix, Overton, Provo, etc.)
A plan? Then let’s walk!
