Hello, amazing friends!
Yes, yes, the weekend flew by. We finished Season 2 of "Night Agent" on Netflix and I put a million miles on my worn out shoes at the mall on Saturday. (haha, I did a lot of walking, with clients and friends, about 19,000 steps). It's so important to invest in good shoes and replace them before they start hurting your feet. That is not a normal amount of walking for me, but somedays you just do more. 😆
👟Speaking of good shoes, it's time to announce the scheduled dates for our brand new "Grit & Grace Walking Club".
Grit ? We got it. Grace? We need it. (especially for ourselves) Self-compassion means letting go of the days the wheels fell off the bus, and get up the next day with a fresh start. We CAN do this. Setbacks are normal. We're anchoring in the comeback.
Many people ask me how I've maintained my weight over the years and I'm not shy about sharing my commitment to consistent moving & walking. I'm certain it's one of the things that has helped, along with eating as healthy as I can. Practicing gratitude keeps me in a good headspace and I'm forever grateful how the Coach Amy community continues to grow. 🙏🏻🌱
What are some other health benefits of walking you ask?
Boosting our immune system
Lowering cardiovascular disease risk
Strengthening bones and muscles
Lowering high blood pressure
Reduce stress
Improved quality of life
Weight loss
Controlling blood sugar levels
Um, Endorphins 😎
Combine all of the health benefits, moving, the fresh air, visiting new parks/places and connecting with friends (old and new) and we are guaranteed to be set up for success!
Dues are $40.00/ annually
Pay as you go: $5.00
Cash, check (Coach Amy, LLC) or Square link (coming soon)
Kids, dogs, and families are welcome. (free)
Walk at your own pace. We'll walk between 2 - 3 miles. (about an hour) Wear good, supportive and comfortable shoes. If you want to start with 1 mile, it's okay.
Bring a water bottle and high-protein snack.
You don't have to come to all of them. I'll be creating a punch card to keep track of attendance, with special giveaways and door prizes.🥑 (Well, because it's fun to win something, knowing the real win is our improved health)
Be sure to click the button below to join! I'll create a special email list, so the regular Monday blog doesn't get overrun with Walking Club details.
If you're not local to Louisville, KY, find a place to explore where you live on the same dates. Feel free to send pictures of your walk!
