Walking in a group is a great way to get fit while you socialise and make new friends.
There's normally something for everyone amongst these walking event organisers. From a one mile stroll to a 100k trek, and all points in-between.
They are organised group events, and most are for the purpose of raising money for various charities. WLR's Walk the Weight Off Challenge will help you train for the longer distance walks.
