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.

I found this site by googling "Walk Across America" hoping somebody had set up a way of translating daily walking miles into a cross-country virtual walk. Health Walkers is even better than what I'd hoped for, very complete but not too complicated. It's really kept me motivated. I'm more than half-way across Illinois (yeah, I started in my home state, not on the East Coast) then it's on to Iowa and points west!

I want to thank you for the use of your web site to help me lose the weight I was trying to lose. Now that I have met my goal I will be dropping out of your program. Thanks again. I encourage others to use the site as well. Keep up the good work. Yours is the best site of its kind I have found anywhere!

I walk so I won't have to sit in a doctors office when I get old. I have been a mall walker for more than ten years (2 or 3 times a week). Since I subscribed to Health Walkers in January, I have been given another goal to reach after every achievement. I now walk at least 25 miles each week in order to reach my new goal of 1000 miles this year. I am one of the lucky ones who has never had a weight problem. I'm 68 and feel great thanks to Health Walkers.

The new web site is amazing! I really like it. It is first class.
I really enjoy the virtual walk across the states. It really keeps me motivated! It is fun to see others progress also. And it is nice to get the emails from others when I reach my goals!

Thankyou for all of the encouraging emails I received yesterday regarding my first milestone! I am so excited to have made it in such a quick time! I am currently in training for the Avon Breast Cancer 3 Day and the Health Walkers site is a great source for motivation! Every morning after I get back from my walks I go straight to the computer so I can log my miles! Currently, I am walking an average of 3.5 to 4.5 miles a day. Next weekend I will be participating in my first 10 mile walk!!! I am a bit nervous about it but I feel confident that I can complete it. Thank you again for all of the support and kind messages!

Every goal is first recognized by a challenge. When we accept that challenge and strive to achieve that goal we will be successful in our accomplishments ... walk on HEALTHWALKERS!

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!

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 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!
