A great way to exercise and help raise money for a good cause

This year is the 17th Annual CHOC/Disneyland Resort walk in the Park. I am participating with my work as a part of a team, but you can also participate individually. All that is required to participate is $50, either from yourself, or in sponsorships.

I would totally suggest starting a CC team (which could still be done, but I personally wouldn't be able to be a part of it because I'm already a part of a team) if people would be interested.

I just thought I would throw it out there because it would be a great motivator for some people to get out and exercise for a good cause!

If people are interested in participating, let me know and I'll forward you a link to the website.

CM, that sounds like a fun thing to do.  Do you have more information about the walk?  I know CHoC is Childrens Hospital of Orange County.  Certainly a worthwhile charity.  How long is the walk and what day is it held?  I did the Revlon walk in LA earlier this year and it was a really fun experience.  I think making a CC group is a great idea.

It is on Sunday, October 19th at 7 a.m. at Disneyland. I'm not sure how long it is, but I believe it is less than two hours because it is held before the park opens at 9 a.m.

Here's a link to the website: www.chochwalk.org

At that website you can sign up if you'd like Laughing

I live in Orange and am totally interested.

Send me the link please.

My husband and I are also interested.  Do we want to make a CC team?  That would a fun way to get to know some of our local calorie counters.  It is 5K which is about 3 miles.  Should be an easy walk and a chance to burn off a few calories while helping a good cause.

I think you guys should definitely start a team, if you can get enough people! I would join, but as I said I've already committed to the team that my work has started. I would, however, still like to meet you guys if you decide to do the walk. I'll be with the Orange County's Credit Union team.

Featured question:

Is jump roping as good an exercise as running?

In terms of calorie burning, moderate jumping is about equal to running a 10-minute mile, although calorie burning is always a function of time... Read more
