I like this March Madness walking challenge. I just saw it today. The weather here has been bad, plus I have had to work late. I walked today and was logging my miles when I saw the competition. It was a pleasant surprise. This website has been an inspiration to keep me walking. I am telling my friends about it also. To everyone who has reached their first 100 mile goal congratulations. I hope to be there soon.

This website has been a big encouragement to me. I am diabetic and need all the encouragement to get on the treadmill even when I don't really feel like it. With the "Survival" special events, I have been increasing my miles and it has been a great health benefit too!. Today I walked 8 miles and feel GREAT!

Oh Thank you! Thank you! I enjoy the walking challenges that you have set up. I wanted to let you know last month's "March Madness" challenge helped me a lot. The point system and with communicating with my team members worked for me. Thanks for all the effort you put into these.

I just wanted to say thank you. I was unsure of who ever created Health Walkers, but thank you for doing so. I've just had my 1st baby in November and I was really bummed out about all the weight that I've gained. So my mother and I decided to start walking together, but due to how different our schedules, we ended up walking at different times. Since then, I would be catching my self skipping days and getting further and further behind. The other day my mother found Health Walkers on the web. Your site has made it a lot easier since then. I've only been a member for about a week now, but already I feel better when I log in. Thank you once again.

I read about a program called "Exercise Across America" offered through another program. I checked on their website, but it looked to bureaucratic for me. I wanted something simple. Their program uses a logbook and you pick a state to walk across. A small state would be for beginners and a large state for an advanced walker. I then started browsing and found your website. Much more simpler and easier to use. I like the way you have set up your "Walk Across America" program.

Thanks for the kind words when I met my 2000 mile goal. You asked me if it was all running. It's actually mostly walking. Up until a couple of years ago I ran all the time, but I now have arthritis in my left hip and was advised by my doctor to do more non-weight bearing exercises like biking and swimming, and less running. Thanks for developing this web site. It's very motivating and a great way to keep track of everything. My son introduced my husband, and I to it last year, and we both have really enjoyed it. Thanks again for the web site.

I am so excited about joining Health Walkers. I've been a fitness walker since last fall. I try to walk at least an hour a day. I also do aerobics and/or weight training 5 days a week. I can feel my competative side coming out when I look at the miles logged in by other members. I'm ready to help my team when the next team event starts. Thanks for the support and keep up the good work.

I never thought I could stick with a walking program for this long. Health Walkers has helped a lot. I love the friendly challenges.

I really like the “Random Chance Survival” walking event! It promotes consistency; getting out every day and adding some miles. You can't just pile up a bunch of miles one day and then goof off (something I'm exceptionally good at ) since you don't know what days will be excluded. It's helped me go just a bit farther on my "lazy days" than I otherwise would have. Thanks for a well-thought-out event!

My daughter and I are enjoying the little competitions between the two of us, using your site as a way to measure our progress. Thanks for giving us this opportunity to have fun with our walking!!!! Keep it going! I am getting my mother ready to sign up, too. Three generations!! Too cool!
