Thank you to everyone who has walked with us over these last years.

As larger gatherings are still difficult to plan due to COVID-19, we have created a run, walk or cycle virtual event which can take place wherever and whenever a participant chooses to complete a 5k+ distance at your own convenience wherever you live by “Walking for Edie” prior to September 1, 2021.


Why walk?

For Edie, walking was therapy for the body and soul. Walking helped keep Edie focused and grounded in good times and bad. It was her release, her way of keeping fit, relieving stress, and simply achieving a sense of well-being.

Edie embraced life every day and it always included a walk along one of her favorite routes. As everyone who knew her would agree, Edie stayed connected with friends and family by inviting them to join her on a walk. When we think about Edie, we always remember how much she enjoyed walking and talking along the way.
