Why walking, running and biking? - For starters, walking provides moreexercise for the world than all other forms of exercise combined. These are three of the most popular forms of exercise andthey are easy to make a part of your normal routine. With time we will add new events.
Challenge at Myspace - In April 2008 we'll start our first Challenge atMyspace, which state or province can log the most miles in each of the 3 venues. Join (or champion) one of our virtual clubsright here at Myspace. Just identify your favorite venue (you can do all three) and then find your state or province. Forexample, you might be on the Virtual Walking Club of Texas. Every time you log your miles they will go into the states total,and then you'll watch your state compete against the rest!
