Many months ago – like 7 of them! – I was invited to join the #WalkiePosse team on the Charity Miles app to benefit the Alzheimer’s Association.
I downloaded the app, set up my profile, and that’s as far as I got.
Yes, I am sad to confess that I contributed exactly ZERO of my team’s 12,745 total miles. Which means that my 78 team members are responsible for approximately $3,186.25 in donations to the Alzheimer’s Association while I was responsible for ZILCH 🙁
But today, I started walking.
And I liked it!
(That is the actual beach in Hawaii where I walked today. Not a bad site for a stroll!)
The app is a free download, and the donations are made by sponsors such as Brooks Running, Johnson & Johnson, Walgreens, Garmin, and many more.
All it takes is tapping <Start Workout> when beginning a walk, run, or bicycle ride. (That’s the part that it took me so ridiculously long to remember to actually do – grrrr!)
And then press the <Finish> button when the work is done.
If you walk your dog, jog for exercise, or bike for fun, please consider joining our team: #WALKIEPOSSE to help #ENDALZ. Or start your own team to support causes that are near and dear to you.
How fun that there’s an app for that!
With love and hugs,
Ashli
PS: I also truly believe that I should receive triple credit for today’s workout as walking in the surf was 3x more difficult than the normal walk around the block…just saying!!
