FINAL Details for Event!

The 5K/10K will be here SOON!!! I can't wait to see all of you on Sunday at Bonnie Park in Strongsville. We'll kick-off at 2pm. Please plan to arrive by 1:45pm.

Map to Bonnie Park

Here are some things to know...

#1. Non-perishable food item... As part of Weight Watchers Lose for Good campaign, I'm asking each participant to bring a one food item to be donated to the Cleveland Foodbank. Let's see the food pile-up at the park!

#2. Bring water! You need to hydrate yourself before, during and after the walk. I will have some water available, but it's always best to be prepared.

#3. We'll walk RAIN OR SHINE!! Unless there are really bad thunderstorms/tornadoes, we'll continue with the 5K/10K! (I know some of you have trained in the rain too! Woo hoo!)

#4. Look for the signs and balloons! I'll have signs and balloons at the corner of Pearl Road and Albion Road/Valley Parkway, and at the entrance to Bonnie Park.

#5. Sign in and out! I will be asking everyone to sign in and out to keep a record of those who attended and to ensure that no one is left behind!

#6. Group Photo!!! I want to commemorate this GREAT event with a group photo before we start. We'll gather together and take one before the walk begins.

#7. Carpool, if you invited guests. I want to ensure there is plenty of parking.

#8. And, lastly... Be prepared to have FUN!!!


Don't forget... come and walk as much as you can. It's not a race. If you can't walk the entire 5K (3.1 miles), come and walk as much as you can!

I am so excited that you'll be joining me and all my wonderful WW friends on Sunday for the 5K/10K Walk. I'm so proud of each and every one of you for all the hard work you've done to prepare for this walk. It's going to be GREAT!!!

Please email me with any questions (stephanie@wwleader.com)! See you Sunday!
