... began one day at Ritter Park in Huntington, West Virginia.

Every once in a while I would see a lady walking around the park with a pair of sticks. You would see her a day or two, then she would be gone a good while, and suddenly she'd reappear.

One day, in a serious breach of Ritter Park ettiquette, I spoke to her and asked: "What are the sticks for"?

"Well", she replied, "walking with sticks gives you a better cardiovascular exercise, improves your posture, and stops hand swelling."

If something would stop my hands from throbbing, I was going to give it a try. So, I walked with the sticks for a couple of miles and my heart wasn't pounding in my knuckles any more.

I asked: "Where do you get walking sticks, and how much are they"?

She said: "You can order them online, and they cost anywhere from $90.00 to $200.00 a pair."

I looked at those sticks and thought: "I can do better!"

So, I started making walking sticks.....

Version 1s were not much, but they worked. They got their name while I was walking around the park. (I'm walking for the exercise which is good for the heart, which is Cardio..... heart walk, cardio walk..... heart hike, heart trek...... cardiotrek ...... CardioTrek!! )

Version 2s were better, and the version 3s are really pretty good.

CardioTrek Walking Sticks version 4s are now being produced, and they are a good set of sticks. Version 4 +1 and Version 4 + 2 offer an extra pound or two of weight for folks who want to maximize the benefit of their walking exercise.

What I want to accomplish:

I want to make a good set of walking sticks available to everyone who wants, or needs them at an affordable price.

The best part of this whole venture is seeing folks helped by something that I've made. It's just great to see people with balance or walking issues stand up straight, reach out and stride! Just great!!

So, if you want a good set of walking sticks, give my CardioTrek Walking Sticks a try. I appreciate your business.
