LETTER FROM JUDY

EVENT-USATF CLINIC
TIP-ACUPUNCTURE

RECIPE-AVOCADO SALSA

 

Hi Walkers!

The cooler temperatures of the past week have me looking ahead (and forward) to

the Fall.  September always brings a colorful calm just before the wet weather storm

we call Winter! We have planned two events to celebrate this exciting season, one

old  and one new. 

REI will be running a Swift Walk on September 17th.  Walk with us to Chapman Elementary to view the Vaux Swifts as they fly into the chimney at sunset.  Visit www.rei.com for more information.

If you are new to WOW, you might not know about the Sisters Stride into Autumn. 

It just so happens to be our most popular destination event.  Bask in the beauty of

the Deschutes National Forest on this 10K/15K weekend getaway.

For more info, click here.

Come welcome Autumn with us, I look foward to seeing you in Sisters.

Email judy@wondersofwalking.com and let me know how you celebrate Fall!

 

Best — Judy

HEALTH TIP:  Acupuncture

By Marcia Mueller, L.Ac

Exercising is good for your health, but if you participate in sports long enough or hard enough it's likely that at some point you will be injured. Whether these injuries are minor aches and pains or more serious sprains or breaks, being an athlete one of your primary goals is to get back to your sport as soon as possible. That's where acupuncture can help.
