Rain or shine Oregonians love to get out and walk. Last month, we walked over 60 miles with nearly 600 people to celebrate STEPtember. Steptember is a month of walking fun - a way to encourage people throughout the region to find new places to walk and people to enjoy walking with. Oregon Walks conceived Walktober (STEPtember's predecessor) in 2011 to promote walking as a fun, healthy, ubiquitous activity in the Portland metro region. This year, we decided to get a jump on all the walking fun.
