Dedicated group shows up to initiate 24th 'Walk 100 Miles in 100 Days®'; photo gallery available

The journey of 100 miles began with a steady rain and chilly temperatures. But despite the poor conditions, determined walkers turned up Monday (April 16) for the Walk 100 Miles in 100 Days® kick-off walk, which started from the main lobby of J.W. Ruby Memorial Hospital.
