As the team prepares for the 7th international trek for people with Parkinson's, led by nurse practitioner Sherrie Gould, we completed a 4-day training weekend in the western Sierra Mountains consisting of back to back five to 10 mile hikes at elevation. 

The group arrives in Bali June 9th for an 8-day trek though this amazing Indonesian island.

These treks are "because we can!" The power of watching people with Parkinson's, some of whom have never done anything like this before, is amazing. Each person is getting stronger, fitter, more durable, and more confident as they move past their own limits.
