Walking for Weight Loss

DEUTSCH SIEHE UNTEN ==== Our silent walks are finally here. We challenge you to join us in the next two weeks for a daily silent walk in the morning through Hasenheide. **In a nutshell:** we meet at 07:55 am in front of Little Johns Bikes (1 minute walk away from metro Südstern), and at 08:00 am we start walking together into Hasenheide for a one-hour loop, finishing where we started. It is a completely silent activity, from start to finish, from hello to goodbye, and we ask you to respect that. Even if you come with friends, please do not talk during the walk. **Why should you join these walks?** The idea is to create space for a few simple things. First, a chance to start the day by being outside and seeing morning light for a longer stretch of time. Morning light helps regulate our circadian rhythm, and being outdoors makes that light much more effective than staying inside. Second, a chance to be together without small talk, or any talk at all. We invite you to feel accompanied without having to think about what to say or make conversation. Third, a chance to take some mindful time. While we walk, we invite you to notice the park around you and stay in the moment. What was your favourite bird today? How many bikes passed us? What sound do our steps make on grass, and how does that change on gravel? We will offer one optional daily question or challenge to help you stay grounded. And fourth, a chance to move, which is simply a great way to start the day feeling good. ===== Wir laden euch ein, in den nächsten zwei Wochen jeden Morgen mit uns einen stillen Spaziergang durch Hasenheide zu machen. **Kurz gesagt:** Wir treffen uns um 07:55 vor Little Johns Bikes, nur eine Minute zu Fuß von der Metrostation Südstern entfernt, und um 08:00 gehen wir von dort gemeinsam in Hasenheide und machen dort eine einstündige Runde, die wieder am Ausgangspunkt endet. Es ist eine komplett stille Aktivität, von Anfang bis Ende, und wir bitten euch, das zu respektieren. Auch wenn ihr mit Freund\*innen kommt, sprecht bitte während des Spaziergangs nicht. **Warum mitmachen?** Die Spaziergänge bieten... Die Idee ist, Raum für ein paar einfache Dinge zu schaffen. ... eine Möglichkeit, den Tag draußen zu beginnen und das Morgenlicht über einen längeren Zeitraum mitzunehmen. Morgenlicht hilft dabei, unseren zirkadianen Rhythmus zu regulieren, und draußen ist dieses Licht viel wirksamer als drinnen. ... eine Möglichkeit, zusammen zu sein, ohne Smalltalk oder überhaupt reden zu müssen. Wir laden euch ein, euch begleitet zu fühlen, ohne überlegen zu müssen, worüber ihr sprechen sollt oder wie ihr ein Gespräch anfangen könnt. ... eine Möglichkeit, sich etwas achtsame Zeit zu nehmen. Während wir gehen, laden wir euch ein, den Park um euch herum wahrzunehmen und im Moment zu bleiben. Welcher Vogel hat euch heute am besten gefallen? Wie viele Fahrräder sind an euch vorbeigefahren? Wie klingen unsere Schritte auf Gras, und wie verändert sich das auf Kies? Jeden Tag geben wir euch eine optionale kleine Frage oder Beobachtungsaufgabe mit, die euch helfen kann, geerdet zu bleiben. Und eine Möglichkeit, sich zu bewegen, was einfach ein guter Start in den Tag ist :)

We'll start off the session with a run in Gleisdreieck park that might include scaling some walls, visiting a few sites in the area to explore their opportunities for climbing and balancing, or going up or down stairs in unusual ways. After the outdoors bit, we come back to our gym where we focus on building strength, working as a group, and learning basic martial arts techniques. We are a small, accessible, mixed-gender, queer-friendly group open to anyone, without any prior knowledge or specific degree of fitness required. Our martial art is Jutaijutsu, a traditional Japanese one focused on self-defence. Sounds interesting? We'd love for you to drop by and join us. You'll need running shoes and comfortable workout clothes, including a raincoat or the like for the park if the weather is bad. Once indoors, we train barefoot. The first three Meetups are free of charge. If you'd like to join our group beyond that, we would ask you to join our association, https://yanagi.berlin, a martial arts school based in Berlin. Membership there is 30 EUR/month and you will be able to train three times a week.

When I first started strength training, I was intimidated, confused, and nowhere near consistent. I kept thinking it would be easier if I just had other women around me going through the same thing. So I'm starting exactly that — for women who are beginner - intermediate lifters and want to keep going. I am hosting the first Walk & Lift: Grab a coffee, take a walk, then hit the gym together with other women. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **What this is** We meet in front of a cafe, walk for about 40 minutes, and end at a gym nearby. Want to train after? Great, work on your own program or buddy up with someone. Prefer to just do the walk and grab a coffee? Also great. What's important is that you are surrounded by other women who are interested in getting stronger! \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **Where we meet:** * We meet at **19grams Alex** * We walk to and gym at **Holmes Place Gendamenmarkt** \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **What to bring** * Comfy shoes and your energy! * Joining the gym session after the walk? You'll need a membership that gives you access to **Holmes Place Gendamenmarkt** (Urban Sports Club or Holmes Place membership both work). **Don't have one? The first person to sign up without a membership gets a free guest pass on us.** Holmes Place Gendamenmarkt also has a day pass for 19.90 EUR which you can access [here](https://www.holmesplace.de/probetraining?gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=18141227946&gbraid=0AAAAADFyQfnrrPl5E_GMr06L8jrFZENG9&gclid=Cj0KCQjw7IjOBhDyARIsAFzrWQyFSHEJ3H3e106_AgNL3_lDynQ9UxNDQ5gO8-m-77xMgSEO1geQfD8aAu8sEALw_wcB&utm_source=luma). \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **Important** * **Only for women** * **Free to attend**, but please only register if you’re fully committed to coming. Thank you! * **You can also only join the walk for recovery!** * **A no-show means significantly smaller likelihood of being accepted for the next events.** * **Please don't be late**: we start walking 10 minutes after the meetup time.

[The Board Walks](http://www.theboardwalks.com/) are for curious people who love deep conversations. If that sounds like you, **bring a thoughtful topic** and join us for a 5-mile walk (10,000+ steps!). **HOW IT WORKS** **Step 1: Bring a topic** Before you arrive, think of **one** topic you want to explore. A question. A thought that's been on your mind. An obsession you want to geek out on. This is your ticket to the event. **Step 2: Circle up & share** We gather in a circle. Your friendly walk host gives a speech to set the tone. Everyone shares: your name, what you're grateful for, and your topic. That's it. 60 seconds. **Step 3: Walk, talk & float** We walk 5 miles. You naturally drift into conversation with 2-3 people at a time, pulled by topics that spark your curiosity. When you're ready to move on, just say: "I'm going to float!" **Step 4: Feel more alive** Two hours flies by. You're back where you started — but you feel different. More alive. More energized. More connected to yourself and others. That's why regulars join 20+ times. *For more details, read our [Orientation Guide.](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation)* **HOW TO BRING A GREAT TOPIC** A great topic = something you're genuinely curious about. Recent topics include: * "What are you passionate about right now?" * "What makes a good friend?" * "What's a belief you used to hold that you've completely changed?" * "How do you want to be remembered?" * "What would you do if money wasn't a factor?" Think of your topic like the dish you're bringing to our conversational potluck. If everyone brings an A+ dish (i.e. energizing, uplifting, expansive), we'll all walk away feeling lighter and brighter. **WHAT TO EXPECT** This isn't a fitness event with casual chitchat. It's a walking think tank where we explore life's big questions together, beyond small talk. *If you're looking for light banter or a standard networking event, this probably isn't the right fit.* But if you crave depth, genuine connection, and conversations that make you feel alive? You'll love it here. **FAQ** * Wear casual athletic attire and sneakers. It's a long walk! * We have multiple first-timers at each event. We work hard to create a welcoming, inclusive, clique-free space. * We welcome people of **all** ages, backgrounds, and industries who align with the [intention](https://www.theboardwalks.com/ground-rules) of this space. * Rain or shine, we've been out here nearly every week since July 2022. If the event is cancelled, we'll let you know. * Dogs, babies in strollers, parents, and friends are welcome — please text/email them the event link so they can RSVP and prepare a topic! **LOGISTICS** * If you'll arrive over 10 minutes late, we suggest skipping the event. It's hard to find us once we start walking, and your host can't answer messages during the event. * This walk is designed for everyone to *move together at the same steady pace* (about 20 min/mile). This format works best when the whole group moves in unison. If you have mobility limitations, we kindly encourage you to find an event better suited to your needs. * Read our [Orientation Guide](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation) for full details. * If you enjoy the event, send **[this](http://www.theboardwalks.com/)** to a friend or sign up for our **[newsletter](https://theboardwalks.beehiiv.com/)**. We're in multiple cities with more on the way. 🤠👋 **IF YOU WANT TO GO DEEPER...** [The Board](https://stan.store/ellebeecher/p/the-board) is the next step: a high-trust collective for renaissance people devoted to creating, connecting, and building lives that light us up. * This is a global HQ for people who crave big talk, deep connection, and dream collaborations with people across industries. If the walks feel like a spark... The Board is the fire. Apply [here](https://stan.store/ellebeecher/p/the-board).

**Over time I'm hoping to organize a hike to all the Franklin County Metro Parks. This is the first one so if you're interested jump in!** **We'll start with the Canopy Walk, a cool feature of this park. Climb 100 stairs to the top - or take the elevator if stairs aren't your thing. At the top there are a bunch of things to play on - a rope bridge, a fireman pole that we can slide down - and more! About fifteen minutes there and we'll head to the natural trail, Buttonbush, Maple and Beech Trail for 2.2 miles then do a 1.7 mile loop on the paved Greenway Trail. We'll be passing our cars as we transition if you only want to do the first loop, or the second loop. Pace of around 3.5 mph but no one left behind.** **If there is an interest we can grab lunch nearby afterward at Prost Beer and Wine Cafe. Www.prostcafe.com**
