Michelle Freeman I walked the 5k Candy Race with friends. It was a beautiful day to walk.
Steven Gratz Went for a 1.85 mile walk on vacation in Michigan. Went with new daughter, wife, and dog. Walked for 45 minutes – it takes a little longer with a small human.
Morgan Hammonds We took just under a mile walk with the OSU Health Coaches around the Oval and Mirror Lake!
Joyce Wagner At Alum Creek State Park on Saturday. Visiting the Buckeye trees that the OSU Alumni Club of Delaware County donated and planted there many years ago! Lovely day.
