The general format of information in written and video content during the week:
- There are three pre-recorded live-stream events
- 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: local culture, history; wellness encouragement (walking!), and food and wine focus.
Distance travelled virually
We are doing virtual excursions from Prague to Bratislava- approximately 28 miles a week. If you wish to to participate in a walking challenge, we will let you know walking distances, otherwise set a goal that works for you! You may decide upon an alternate pacing schedule . 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!
