What's a Virtual Walk?
Can't make it to the Arthritis Walk this year? Going on a trip? Working on Walk Day? Conflicting commitment? Live too far away? Not to worry! Now with the Arthritis Foundation's Virtual Walk, you can participate even if you can't physically be there on Walk Day!
By participating in the Arthritis Foundation Virtual Walk you can support the cause even if distance or another commitment doesn't allow you to physically participate. It's a great way to support a friend or loved one even if you live in a different city or state or can't make it to the walk.

How do I Participate?
1. Register! Registering for the Virtual Walk is simple and is the same as registering for the actual Walk. Customize your web page noting you are virtually walking and begin fundraising!
2. Walk! You can gather friends, family and/or co-workers in your area and participate, at your own leisure, in a 1- or 3-mile satellite walk to raise awareness for arthritis. Tell your friends and family who visit your webpage why you're virtually walking (i.e. "We'll be away in Florida during the Walk, so we're planning to walk in Disney World instead!") and when you plan to walk (if possible).
Fun Places to Walk:
Be creative and have fun!
3. Tell us about it! Send us photos of your walk and team members. We'll post them on our Walk Website noting where and when you walked! Make sure to send us all registration forms (or register online) and donations collected ahead of time so that we can send all of your team members goody bags, and if they raise $100, t-shirts! We'll even send you a banner for your Team Photo! Everyone near your personal walk site will notice your team, and maybe you can even convince people to join in! And don't forget about those incentive prizes (See "NEW incentive prizes" on the website, on the left hand side)!
It's a new, fun way to never have to miss out on your favorite Walk again!
Register today and virtually participate!
