Croatia: The route of health & friendship: May 15-29, 2021

May 15-29, 2021 

We start on Saturday, May 15 with a live virtual event with Saso, Tina and Ervin who will be on location in  Trieste, Italy. 

The general format of information in written and video content each week:

• Saturdays: Live-stream events at 11am CDT (9am Pacific/12pm Eastern)- each hour-long virtual tour will be recorded and can be watched anytime.  There are three live-stream events:  May 15, 22 and 29
• Every day you receive fascinating information about where we are on the path in the form of video, photo and/or written content.   Certain days there may be more of a focus such as: Mondays: Culture, history; Wednesdays: Wellness tips, yoga for walkers, nutrition ideas; and Fridays: Food and wine focus. 

The actual mileage is 127 miles over two weeks.  If you wish to join the biking or walking challenge, set a goal that works for you!  You may decide upon an alternate pacing schedule if you want to have more gentle pace.   Walking, running, yoga, cleaning your house, grocery shopping - time spent doing most all sorts of activities add up to mileage.   Set your pace and keep track on your own with a Fitbit or keep track as you wish.  

You may also prefer to not partake in the virtual walking part of the experience and enjoy the cultural and historical aspects of the experience- it's all good!

We will dive deep into history - walking with the Romans, observing the Venetians, being intrigued with the Austro-Hungarians and marvel at the beautiful cultural mix of the three countries seen on the plates, in wine glasses as well as in meeting the fascinating and hardworking locals. 

1) A good pair of walking shoes/hiking boots (if you are taking part in the virtual walking challenge) or a bike if you plan to cycle

2) A Fitbit or an alternate method to keep track of distance (remember we will supply you with a conversion table to refer to for all your other daily activities that add up to mileage!) 

3) A sense of curiosity & adventure-we are so excited to do this with you!

4) Sign up with your email and program payment of $75

5) Once you sign up you will receive a welcome email from our Coach app that guides you with content each day

Live-streaming is scheduled for 11:00am Central Daylight Time on Saturdays (9am PDT/12pm EDT). 

The Slovenian team will broadcast live and show us around where we are on the path.
