David is touring colleges with his wife Krissy and son Charlie, gathering good fodder for future newsletters. In his absence, I wanted to take a moment to reflect on Walk with a Doc’s journey. Why now? Because we are on the brink of epic news. 499 communities are offering
Walk with a Doc programming in their communities (we are purposely holding off #500 until David returns). That’s insane. It feels like we just celebrated
300. All because of an idea in 2004 (
check out this beautifully written account of the Walk’s founding). Thanks to partners like
Mount Carmel who believed in us in the early years and a course altering sponsorship from the
Texas Medical Association shortly thereafter, we are on the path to realizing our vision. You’ve read about in the
past, including David’s recent uncensored
musings and my all time favorite one
here. It’s with profound gratitude that we (speaking for us all) extend a heartfelt thank you to each one of you for being an integral part of inspiring communities through movement and conversation. ~ Rachael
