The trek may be virtual, but the benefits are real.
A group of Garlands members are on a their way to Paris (more than 4,140 miles away from Barrington) by walking, swimming, biking, even climbing! About 40 men and women--all senior citizens--are participating, counting the miles logged while exercising against their goal. They're currently just over half-way. Members report that having a goal makes exercise easier and more fun.
