Let's get out for a morning hike at Grant Park. The hike will be 4 - 5 miles at a moderately brisk pace of 2.8- 3.0 mph depending on trail conditions. We'll start at the Nature Nook and cover parts of the yellow, brown, blue and red trails. There are a few hills and there is also trail construction in progress at Grant Park so we may have to backtrack/re-route. But we should not exceed 5 miles total.

Wear sturdy footwear, dress for the weather, prepare for ice and/or mud on the trails and bring water. Hiking poles are helpful but not required.

No pets please.

In the event of rain, storms or high winds I may cancel. Check here for updates if weather is questionable.

Let's get together and explore the unique neighborhoods and areas Dayton and vicinity have to offer!

For this Urban Hike we are going to the AMAZING United States Air Force Museum!

This is a series hike, meaning it's every Saturday for 4 weeks, beginning Saturday January 11.

THIS HIKE IS REPLACING THE FEB. 1ST HIKE I HAD TO CANCEL.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO ATTEND ALL 4 WEEKS.

The museum will have route signs with arrows directing us how to find our way through. (good, cause it's HUGE)

The distance is about 1.5 miles per go around.

I did this a couple years ago and it was so fun and those planes are mesmerizing!

But let's try and stay focused and keep the legs moving for 1 hour. I did set the time for 2 hours in case we want to meander for a while after the hike.

Meet inside the entrance after you go through the metal detector.

This is open to the public, not just my hike.

There's also "Yoga Under the Wings" those same Saturdays also from 8am to 9am. You must register for the Yoga, not the walk. Bring a mat.
See link below for that.

If you complete all 4 Saturdays the museum is giving out prizes. So we will give our names each Saturday we go so they will know we went all 4 weeks for the prize.
