South Coast Striders release – Coos County Odyssey 2023 is a virtual fitness challenge that ‘virtually’ tracks you as your earned miles take you 216 miles through Coos County. Each time you complete an exercise activity such as walking, running, biking, swimming, yoga, dance, paddling, golf, and more, you will advance along the route map, starting on February 1 at Sunset Bay, and ending at Coos Health & Wellness by the end of April. Proceeds benefit the Nurses’ Purse Fund. The Nurses’ Purse is a discretionary fund which can be accessed by public health nurses at Coos Health & Wellness to help families in need with essentials such as food, winter clothing, infant care, and payment of medical bills for the uninsured. The relatively small assistance from this fund can help families overcome what seem to be insurmountable obstacles to their health and wellbeing. When you sign up, join the South Coast Striders team (or form your own team).
