Join us for Just a Walk – a free community walking program! Each event is led by a local healthcare advocate/provider, and is open to people of all ages and abilities. The program allows participants to safely take a walk, learn about current health topics, and meet new people. We hope to see you at our next walk!
Take a Step Toward Better Health at Walk with a Doc
WALK
Walking is one of the best things you can do for both your physical and mental health! At each event, you’ll have the opportunity to walk at a pace and distance that you’re comfortable with.
LEARN ABOUT HEALTH
Each event starts with introductions. We’ll then start the walk, meeting new people and starting new conversations about health and wellness. About half way through the walk, we’ll stop and talk about the “health topic of the month”. Our goal is to get active, educate and empower individuals in learning and taking an active role in their health and wellness journey. You’ll also have the opportunity to chat with the leader and ask questions during the walk.
MEET NEW PEOPLE
Research shows that socializing with others is extremely important for our health. Bring a friend or meet a new friend at the walks.

Leader: Sarah Maloney, Yoga Lifestyle & Wellness Coach
Topic: Heart Healthy Holidays
UPDATE!!! Change of Location!
Due to some parking challenges we’ve decided to change the location of the walk. Hopefully you’ll be able to make it! Wear your hiking shoes/boots, as I’m hoping the break in the rain will hold through Saturday, but we’re likely to have wet ground.
We’ll be sharing a new/different location for the group, and adventuring out beautiful
Tennessee Valley Trailhead
This month we’ll talk about Heart Healthy Holidays.
The holidays bring joy, connection, and comfort — but also extra stress, rich foods, and tempting habits that can strain your heart and mind. Staying heart-healthy this season isn’t about restriction — it’s about balance and awareness.
This season, celebrate with presence, not excess. Feed your heart with good food, genuine connection, and mindful moments that carry you into the new year feeling calm, strong, and well.
*As we go into the late Fall and Winter months, if weather is questionable, check the website on the actual morning. I’ll post a zoom link for a “virtual walk”.
Warmly, Sarah
P.S.
- Dogs, even on leash, are not allowed on any trails in Tennessee Valley except on the Coastal Trail where it crosses the valley, connecting Rodeo Valley and Muir Beach. Dogwalking is allowed on-leash on the Miwok trail from the Tennessee Valley parking area north to Highway 101, and on leash or under voice control in Oakwood Valley which is off Tennessee Valley Road a short distance before you reach the Tennessee Valley parking lot.
