At age 72, I am planning to walk across American to bring awareness of how exercise etc. can help bring about a healthier heart and vascular system, lower blood pressure, etc., and to raise funds, as well, for the American Heart Association. I welcome you to follow me on my journey! My plan for 2010 is to walk from Lewes, DE to St. Louis, MO or further if possible. In 2005 I was leading a sedentary life and weighed 201 lbs. I started walking and then running and lost 36 lbs, significantly lowered my blood pressure, my bad cholesterol, and raised my good cholesterol equally. My journey will commence on or about April 30th. Help the A.H.A. by donating thru the web site: Michianaheartwalk.kintera.org/johnwalksamerica. If all goes well I hope to be in St. Louis sometime in September 2010.

Wednesday, July 21st




Another day in paradise, it is going to be a glorious day. I walked 4 miles with Shelly this AM. What an awesome dog she is! Carried my customary 20 oz. coffee from Casey's General Store. What a great day.
Take a walk and enjoy it, the sights and sounds. In the process you will be doing your heart a big favor.
