Thinking of walking groups?
Social walking groups can be organized by a variety of organizations, including local parks and recreation departments, walking clubs, and online communities.
The benefits of joining a social walking group are numerous. For one, it can provide a sense of community and motivation, as you have the support and encouragement of others to help you stick to your walking routine. Walking groups can also be a great way to meet new people and make new friends, especially if you are new to an area or looking to expand your social circle.

In terms of structure, social walking groups can vary. Some groups may have a designated leader who plans the route and sets the pace, while others may be more informal, with participants simply showing up and walking together. Some groups may meet regularly, such as once a week, while others may be more sporadic.
