    Hi folks,

    I was thinking that it might be an idea to start some kind of forum walking group in Letterkenny.

    We could meet up somewhere in the town and walk an agreed route a few times a week. It would be a good way to meet new people, keep fit and keep motivated.

    Does anyone have any opinions on when would be the best times to do this, or where we could meet/walk?

    No interest in this?

    I thought given the number of people out and about that people might like the company.
    Ah well.

    A similar thread was started a few months ago in relation to running in Letterkenny but i dont think there was much interest in it either. Surprising given the amount of people you meet on the roads these days. Maybe they all have ipods or rather their own company.

    What did you have in mind?

    I would be interested in some sort of hill walking group.

    I was thinking I'd seen one for that, I just figured walking might appeal to most people, especially for the social side of it.
    It's suitable for any fitness level and age.
    It's a sad age if people prefer their ipods to actual human company.

    I was thinking more of some walking around the town, on the footpaths. I'm trying to make it social, enjoyable and accessable to as many people as possible.
    No special equipment is needed for the town, hillwalking requires boots and the likes which might exclude some people who are tight for cash.
