Joined: Nov 2006 Posts: 2,671 | Yay! I registered for the Chattanooga Walk and looking soooo forward to meeting some OCF friends, especially Christine! I told my daughter (who might also come) about how the sign-up included virtual walkers as well as regular walkers and expressed some concern about whether I would have to be a virtual walker. She asked if I would get a T-shirt saying "I walked 3 virtual miles". I think I could even walk 50 virtual miles if it helped OCF to raise funds! My doctor told me last Spring that I would have to have a complete knee replacement but since then my knee has been fine so I signed up as a regular walker . . . I like to think positive.
So who else is going to Chattanooga in April?
