This site is a great motivator. I have walked before but gave it up because I couldn't seem to get anyone else interested. People think I'm crazy for walking in all kinds of weather but I enjoy it. The summertime heat will be the hardest for me but with Health Walkers, I'm sure I'll keep going. Thank you so much.

More than two years ago, when I was 68 I subscribed to Health Walkers with the hope that I could achieve the challenge you presented in your "Walk Across America" program. That goal has been reached by me and it can easily be reached by all who accept the challenge. At the age of 70, I believe that SURVIVAL is waking in the morning and walking toward a goal.

I want to thank you for the use of your web site to help me lose the weight I was trying to lose. Now that I have met my goal I will be dropping out of your program. Thanks again. I encourage others to use the site as well. Keep up the good work. Yours is the best site of its kind I have found anywhere!

I never thought I could stick with a walking program for this long. Health Walkers has helped a lot. I love the friendly challenges.

I found this site by googling "Walk Across America" hoping somebody had set up a way of translating daily walking miles into a cross-country virtual walk. Health Walkers is even better than what I'd hoped for, very complete but not too complicated. It's really kept me motivated. I'm more than half-way across Illinois (yeah, I started in my home state, not on the East Coast) then it's on to Iowa and points west!

The new web site is amazing! I really like it. It is first class.
I really enjoy the virtual walk across the states. It really keeps me motivated! It is fun to see others progress also. And it is nice to get the emails from others when I reach my goals!

I read about a program called "Exercise Across America" offered through another program. I checked on their website, but it looked to bureaucratic for me. I wanted something simple. Their program uses a logbook and you pick a state to walk across. A small state would be for beginners and a large state for an advanced walker. I then started browsing and found your website. Much more simpler and easier to use. I like the way you have set up your "Walk Across America" program.

Thankyou for all of the encouraging emails I received yesterday regarding my first milestone! I am so excited to have made it in such a quick time! I am currently in training for the Avon Breast Cancer 3 Day and the Health Walkers site is a great source for motivation! Every morning after I get back from my walks I go straight to the computer so I can log my miles! Currently, I am walking an average of 3.5 to 4.5 miles a day. Next weekend I will be participating in my first 10 mile walk!!! I am a bit nervous about it but I feel confident that I can complete it. Thank you again for all of the support and kind messages!

I really like the “Random Chance Survival” walking event! It promotes consistency; getting out every day and adding some miles. You can't just pile up a bunch of miles one day and then goof off (something I'm exceptionally good at ) since you don't know what days will be excluded. It's helped me go just a bit farther on my "lazy days" than I otherwise would have. Thanks for a well-thought-out event!

My daughter and I are enjoying the little competitions between the two of us, using your site as a way to measure our progress. Thanks for giving us this opportunity to have fun with our walking!!!! Keep it going! I am getting my mother ready to sign up, too. Three generations!! Too cool!
