Celebrate your own Ten Toes in 2013!
CMT is so excited to invite those in the St. Louis region to the Spring 2013 session of the Ten Toe Express! This 12-week session will kick off the week of April 8, 2013 and run through the end of June. Registration event dates for the spring are available online. For those who are re-registering, we hope you have enjoyed the walks and will register again; for new registrants, we encourage you to join and participate in one of our four walking groups for what is sure to be a fun-filled season!
**Re-Registrants can register online for the Spring Session at http://cmt-stl.org/fall-2011-ten-toe-express-session/. You do not need to fill out the pre-survey again or come to a registration event if you are re-registering.
It has been so much fun making new friends on the 10-toe adventures. Some of the same folks walk every week and I look forward to catching up on their news. Other folks are there for the first time and it's fun to make a new connection. There is always so much to talk about that you don't notice that you've had a great walk and gotten some good exercise. Sometimes I get to see parts of St Louis that are new to me. - Carol Haneman, Spring 2010

Participants will receive a Ten Toe walking kit which includes (valued at more than $25):
- A Ten Toe tote bag,
- A pedometer,
- Weekly walk logs,
- MetroLink tickets,
- St. Louis Maps,
- Safety tips, and
- More than 85 Suggested walking tours available online.
Official Ten Toe Express Walking Tours will be held for participants to step out and enjoy different destinations in St. Louis by foot, train and bus. Each walking tour will be led by a trained Ten Toe leader, with information included in the walking kits on the length of each trip, the destination of interest and the level of walking difficulty. The walking kits and group walking tours will show you how easy it is to incorporate a walk into your daily life.
The pedometer will allow you to track the number of steps you take each day and to track your progress as you increase your daily walking. Each step you take is one step to closer to better health!
The Ten Toe program is a great opportunity to learn how to access your community through "new" modes of transportation - your own two feet, the bus and MetroLink!
Replacement pedometers are available for $5, please contact tentoe@cmt-stl.org if you need a new pedometer. Thanks.
