A walk At Tilles Park
Details
Meet at the Tilles Park playground just inside the park on the left.
We walk for approximately 3 miles. There is restroom available along sid the playground.
It is understood that you are participating in the events of Walking Workout and Activity Meetup Group of your own free will, and do not hold the club or organizers responsible for any injuries sustained during an event.
I would like to take this opportunity to remember you to be safe. DO NOT leave any valuables visible inside of you car. Put valuables in the trunk or glove compartment. If you know someone else who is going on our meetup, try to carpool. My cell number is 314-306-3222.
What to bring:
- WATER – THIS IS IMPORTANT ALL YEAR LONG AND ESPECIALLY IN THE WARMER MONTHS. WE WILL USUALLY BE OUT FOR AT LEAST 1 ½ HOURS AND THAT IS TOO LONG TO GO WITHOUT REPLENISHING THE LIQUIDS THAT YOU WILL BE BURNING WHILE WALKING. – I AVOID DRINKING CAFFEINATED BEVERAGES BEFORE WALKING. THE ARE A LOT OF GOOD ARTICLES ABOUT “effects of caffeine and exercise” ON THE Internet OR ASK YOU DOCTOR.
- Dress in layers (not sure what the weather will do). The top couple of layers should be easily unbuttoned or unzipped to allow easy ventilation. Wear a hat.
- I recommend broken in hiking shoes over Tennis shoes. A lot of the trails are over loose gravel and dirt and the treads on the hiking boots work much better.
- Snacks – EAT LIGHTLY BEFORE THE WALK AND BRING A POWER BAR OR SNACK TO MUNCH ON DURING THE WALK.
After the walk we may gather at local place for some talk, food and drink.
Meetup Donation: Meetup charges me $189 every six months to have the Walking site. If you would like to donate $1 at some of the walks, it will be appreciated.
