Itinerary:

it's sad I get to re-post this same event 4 years later...but here we are!

The Strawberry Full Moon is rising this weekend, so we'll get to have an early peak at it over the park pond - 


Kick off the weekend w/a 4.6 miler at Roswell Area Park after work today. Even in my gimpy state - the legs still work and I need to keep working them, this park is a great place to do just that...the trails are hard-packed gravel and asphalt with a little to no elevation and wide enough for conversation even with an arm in a sling! We will be walking at a brisk pace - 17 minute/mile pace to get a good workout, so bring comfy shoes and TGIFitness attitude!

Starting from the first parking lot on the left, we'll cover 4.6 miles at a steady brisk pace, be prepared to stay with the group as I want to keep things kind of tight. We'll have a reststop at the bathrooms near mile 3 if anyone needed to use it. 

Please arrive a few minutes early for check in and introductions as we will be leaving on time. 

If you bring your socially calm dog - please observe all park rules

Come "HECK OR HIGH WATER" I'm determined to stay fit during this shoulder surgery recovery!!
