REGISTRATION IS OPEN FOR THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST 4TH EPIC EVERWALK, AND THE SUPPORTING RESOURCES ARE EPIC!!!
 
THERE ARE 150 SLOTS THAT CAN BE FILLED FOR THE FULL EVENT. There are other options for participation from a half, to one day, to several days.  On the event webpage, the hotel accommodations are described from the evening before the first day August 5, through night before the last day, August 11 (nights of August 4-10).
 
Potential registrants are reminded that the rates are special but the number of rooms reserved is small so bunking with someone else may be necessary to get the deals (prices range from $109 to $159/night). Best to decide soon and secure rooms, pronto. A Facebook page is offered to help potential roommates meet.
 
Registration fees are posted.  The range is from $499 + $29.87 for full 7 day event, to $75.00 +$6.24 for single days, to $55.00 + $5.12 for half days.  Important details for single day (morning start) and half day (start after lunch) walkers are included to help with decision making.
 
The page has information on the exact number of miles that will be covered each day (roughly 20) and encourages walkers to start training now.  The Training Plan is 12 weeks and that means starting NOW! There are only 9 weeks until commit day 8/5/2018.

​TRAINING PLANS for every level walker are available through the webpage link and they are wonderful. As amazingly epic as the walk!  Even if you don’t plan to join the group, this valuable information is worth saving. There are sections on “basics”, like form and pace, and “listen to your body” that deal with the physical aspects of this effort like pain, stretching, and using ice, and “equipment and fuel”. 
 
The link will be posted on the Earned Runs RESOURCES page for later reference.
 
Diana and Bonny are leading a huge movement. It is so very exciting to think that these two women and their supporters might transform us into a nation/continent*/world that highly values walking, such that training becomes an ordinary activity for many, and epic adventures are readily available across many regions. 
 
RUN & WALK HAPPY!

*NOTE: The Wikipedia entry for "Pacific Northwest" Identifies this region in terms of geography, not national borders. Interestingly, so does EVERWALK! The North American course starts in Canada and ends in the United States.

    Running, walking, and fitness activities enable us to experience our physical selves in a world mostly accessed through use of fingers on a mobile device.
