Fleet Feet Chico's Summer Walking Program -- 5K training

We are pleased to announce Fleet Feet Chico's Summer Walking Program is open for registration!  This program is specifically designed for individuals who want to start an outdoor fitness program other then running or want to build up to running.   It is also excellent for individuals who are taking a rest from running, and moms and dads - strollers are welcome so you can bring baby, if we are not on the trails.  This program will focus on building mileage so that team members can walk a 5k and you'll have the camaraderie of others just like you.  Get ready to be with a highly social and supportive team!  

Program Information Meeting and Fun Walk:  Kickoff meeting is Monday, June 28th at 6:15pm. Meet the coaches, get information about the program, and update your gear so you're ready to start your training.  Bring a friend!  We'll also take everyone out for a short walk so that you can see how the programs are structured.  We'd love to have you and your walking buddies join so sign up early, limited to 30 walkers.
