C9 Well - Walk + Talk
Powered by Coalition9
Friday, July 17, 2026, 8:30 to 10:30 AM
Location: Lone Lake Park in Minnetonka
About the Event
Come together with other C9ers to enjoy a summer morning in nature in Minnetonka—all while building some new relationships.
We'll meet near the lower main parking lot (by the playground equipment) and split into small groups for walking, talking, and making new friends at 8:45 AM sharp. Take a self-guided tour of the beautiful 146-acre Lone Lake Community Park and Preserve, which features views of Lone Lake from the shore and dock, expansive open space, and nearly two miles of formal trails—including a 1.2-mile loop from the lower main parking lot with scenic views of the park's diverse ecological areas: wetlands, woodlands, and prairies.
Prefer a little friendly competition? Start your day with pickleball instead! The park has 8 courts available on a first-come, first-served basis—just bring your own equipment.
Walking and talking can have many benefits, including improving mental health, boosting creativity, and improving digestion:
Mental health: Walking and talking can reduce stress, anxiety, and depression, and improve overall well-being. Walking releases endorphins, which are natural mood enhancers that can help reduce stress and anxiety.
Creativity: It can boost creativity by providing a change of scene and physically embodying the desire to move forward.
Digestion: By stimulating food movement through the intestines and massaging internal organs, walking can help improve digestion.
Other benefits: Walking can also improve mood, help you sleep better, improve heart health, boost energy levels, and lower blood sugar.
Additional Details
Wear comfortable clothing and appropriate footwear. Bring a water bottle, and be prepared to make new friends 😉
Dogs welcome but must be on a leash.
