Come and walk across Texas with us! Walk Across Texas is a program created by the Texas AgriLife Extension Service in 1996 to help you establish the habit of regular physical activity. From border to border, you or your team, can walk 830 miles across the state, seeing your progress across the state on-line, or on a Texas road map!
Most people start by walking as a member of a team of eight for eight weeks at work or with another type of group such as their church or county. Then, after that, they can transfer their own mileage from those eight weeks to the By Yourself option and continue walking across the state on their own. You may also choose the By Yourself option from the very beginning.
Regardless of whether you choose to start as a team in a group or by yourself, you can walk whenever and wherever you want. Team members do not have to walk together. Some prefer walking outside, while others walk on a treadmill. You may even choose to bike, swim or dance across Texas by using mileage equivalents.
