| Q: | Do I have to walk in a certain place at a certain time? |
| A: | With Lorain County Walks you walk on your own time, at your own pace, wherever you wish. All of the steps you take in a day count, so you are logging steps at work, home, and everywhere in between. If you are a part of a team, you can schedule times during the week to meet and walk together. This gives you a chance to socialize and stay motivated. |
| Q: | Can I participate alone or do I have to have a team? |
| A: | You can register as an individual or you can get together a group of people to make up a team. It's up to you. Some people like the support and encouragement of their team to keep them motivated, while others prefer doing their own thing. |
