The Arthritis Walk with Friends/Stay Hydrated!

PsA has been one of the hardest fights of my life, but I am so lucky to have my friends and family to help me through. This year, we walked in the Boston Arthritis Walk and have raised $2475! Besides raising money, it was an awesome opportunity to get in some exercise with friends. Seven of us walked, along with 4 dogs! It was nice to get to chat and burn extra calories while we were at it!

I did learn a valuable lesson that day- water is more important than you might think! I drank a 20 ounce bottle before the walk started, but I didn't take any more with me. After walking 5k, I had a terrible headache. It wasn't until I drank several glasses of water that the headache went away. Remember, stay hydrated!
