Blue Springs March with the Mayor!On April 3rd I had the pleasure to join Mayor Carson Ross and the Students of Daniel Young Elementary for the "March with the Mayor" fitness walk.  We had a great time and it worked well into the Blue Springs FIT effort to make Blue Springs the most fit city in the nation.

To continue the effort, a group of city employees that refer to themselves as "The Biggest Losers" will be starting a new series of walking opportunities called "WOW", for the Wednesday One O'clock Walkers.  Each week they will walk at 1:00pm and during the walk the participants will decide where the next walk will be.  This weeks' walk will be at Rotary Park walking around the lake.  Five times around the lake equals 2 miles!

Everyone is invited to join in every week.  Information about the walks is available on the city website at http://www.bluespringsgov.com/March.  Anyone interested can also call Sheryl Morgan at 655-0495 for more information.  Come join us for fun and fitness as we walk our way into being the fittest  city in the nation!

I sure wish they would have walking events after the 'common folk' get off work.  All of these events are out of the question for those of us who work outside of Blue Sprigs.

I think this is a great idea...  for those of you that can't make it during the day, just get out and walk when you get home!  Or get a neighborhood group together....  or get a dog!
