  Walking Club of Georgia's Home 

The Walking Club of Georgia is a non-profit organization that was formed in 1987 - it is the only walking club in Georgia that is sanctioned by USA Track and Field. The majority of our members live in the Atlanta area, but other communities in Georgia and other states are also represented.
Our members are fitness walkers, racewalkers, and hikers at every level of ability and every degree of competitiveness - we have members who are beginning walkers and members who are champion racewalkers.
      Club activities include weekly walks at various locations around Atlanta, and monthly hikes in the North Georgia mountains.  We also participate in local races and many other events.  Free clinics for beginning racewalkers are offered on Sunday mornings and at other times.
      We publish an outstanding monthly newsletter that includes stories about club activities, a schedule of events, and articles on walking, racewalking technique, and health and fitness
 
      Membership in the Club and participation in Club activities will give you information, motivation and opportunities to pursue your fitness goals!
