Bloomsday 12k run/walk Spokane, WA

Options
Hey all,

Since I've started my weight loss journey I have come to enjoy long walks and hikes. The first Sunday in May we have a huge race here in Spokane. Just wondering if there are any of you going to do bloomsday, or have done it in the past. I am looking for any tips you might have. I am also looking for a training partner who lives in the area. I am not planning on running the race. I prefer walking because it is nicer on my joints. I have problems from past injuries with my ankles, so any tips for exercising and strengthening would also be appreciated. I like to walk fast, and the farthest I have gone is 6 miles in 90 minutes.
