My husband and I started the new year right with a 10K walk in West Seattle. Previously I’ve mostly passed through this area on my way to the ferry, and have sometimes gotten lost, so this gave me a better sense of where things are. We started out from the Episcopal church and walked through the business district with many interesting restaurants and shops. Then down along the waterfront to Alki Beach where we saw some “polar bear” swimmers. Checkpoint at the Log House Museum, then back up a looong hill–feeling the effects of a mostly sedentary December.
I’ve updated the “NB Walks” page with other highlights of my volksmarch adventures.
