From Bonnie’s tips about fitness to the ideas & initiatives of our EverWalk Nation to guest posts from our Ambassadors, please check back weekly for a new blog, EverWalk‘s blogs highlight aspects of our epic initiative to create a World of EverWalkers!
And always, be inspired by the unique and powerful voice of Diana Nyad:

Culture of Giving

September 2, 2020 To my Dear Friends of EverWalk Nation, Today Bonnie and I are taking a moment to remember. Today, seven years ago, we at long last completed the epic expedition we had worked so hard for, for so many years. Strong swimmers had been trying since 1950,...

The Human Talent: Walking

We homo-sapiens have never been considered the primo specimens of physicality in the animal world. How to compare our strength and speed and agility—the attributes of athletes---to the superiority of the apes, the cheetahs, the blue whales? But there is one activity,...

Walking Brings Happiness

We now know that movement in general—any type of movement—makes us feel better than sitting still. In many hospital settings where long-term care is needed, nurses tend to get their patients up and circling the halls, rather than let them sit or lie pretty much...

The EverWalk Mile

 We have literally traveled many roads since we launched EverWalk five years ago. And we have many visions of new adventures, starting with our upcoming OceansCommit.com walks, dancing in our heads. But from Day One, always, the underlying fabric of EverWalk has been...

Walking: Badass Enough?

Ok, here comes the confession. When Bonnie and I finished the Cuba Swim, an undeniably bad-ass endeavor—not only the final achievement of 53 hours non-stop swimming from Cuba to Florida, but also the thirty-five years of pursuit, the four previous hellish attempts,...

The Value of Intervals

Any time we do the same exercise routine, the same workout, over and over, no change whatsoever, our bodies are very good at becoming more efficient at that workout. If you have made a regular habit of walking five miles at, let’s say, a 17-minute-mile pace, your legs...

One Meaningful Mile

Successful business people often talk about the crucial focus of “niche”. When we first launched EverWalk, and the very raison d’etre behind the name we chose, we envisioned a broad-sweeping concept of EVERYBODY, EVERY DAY, EVERMORE walking. People walking to work,...

Healing Our Blue Planet

Today, on Earth Day, EverWalk Proudly Launches Our New Initiative OceansCommit! As you can imagine, spending most of my life immersed in the ocean, I fell madly in love with this blue jewel of a planet of ours. When Bonnie and I finally became the first team to ever...

Walking Through History

Are you curious about the things, the buildings, the nature, the history of the area through which you walk, yet you find yourself continuing to ask:  I wonder when that house that looks different than the others on the street was built—without ever finding out the...

Howdy, Neighbor!

It is no coincidence that we have launched The EverWalk Mile during the Corona pandemic. Yes, we have had dancing in our imaginations, since we opened our EverWalk doors five years ago, leading a national movement of daily walking. But, perhaps the ultimate irony, our...

Walk a Mile in My Shoes

Walk a Mile in My Shoes

  Evidently, the phrase we all know, Walk a Mile in My Shoes, probably was taken from a poem of 1895 by Mary T. Lathrap. Ms. Lathrap had written: “Walk a mile in his moccasins”, the poem further asking the reader to imagine things from another’s point of view. To...

Take a Sense-ational Walk

Take a Sense-ational Walk

Most of us think of walking first and foremost as something physical — something we use our bodies to do that also engages our minds. But a walk can engage all five of our senses if we so choose. And when we do, it gets us out of our stressful lives for a moment and...

Watch Your Step: Movies About Walking
