Which is super cool and we’ll have to invite them in to talk about that in a future episode.\n\nWe asked Katie to share some information about a wonderful movement activation program for seniors she’s involved with right now.\n\nShe describes how she had this dream, to create a walking training program to prepare a group of seniors to complete the CAP10k, the largest 10 km event in Texas and the sixth-largest in the nation. \n\nShe pitched the concept to AARP Texas and because it fit so well with the national AARP Livable Communities initiative, she was given the go-ahead.\n\nShe goes on to describe how she has navigated through some of the challenges and shared some of the positive outcomes thus far.\n\nHer passion and enthusiasm are contagious and inspiring.\n\nAdditional Helpful Links:\nWalk2Connect\nAmerica Walks\nWow Power Walking\nCAPMetro\nMatt Green Walking Documentary and the story\nWalk with a Doc\nLivable City Podcast\nFour Easy Steps to Support My Efforts:\n1.
