Walking & Bicycling for Fun, Fitness & Travel

Discover information and inspiration for women ages 50 and better to embrace a more healthy, active, and enriching life through activities like walking, strength training, and women's cycling, including tips on bicycling and women's fitness.

Slowpoke Divas: Active Living for Women 50 and Better

Pardon the Dust as I Change Things Up!

Yep, this website has a brand new look and structure but "still under construction" -- so please excuse the temporary stock photos and sparse blog posts!  


So why the change?  


Because I believe life is much more than how I fared in a 5K race or senior games' cycling time trial.  


It's about how I ENJOYED what I'm (still) doing, whether it's bicycling, strength training, or walking. It's about ALL THE PLACES I'm doing it, especially in the context of women's cycling and women's fitness, and what I THINK about this way of living and the things that can IMPACT how we experience it.  


Here's a glimpse of what's in store...

Let's Get Started

Articles, videos, resource guides, and much more are in the works to highlight the joys of walking and bicycling, as well as the best places to enjoy these activities. 


We will also explore factors that impact our ability to maintain a healthy, active lifestyle, including strength training, mobility, and mindset, while advocating for women's fitness and the importance of urban planning.

Let's Connect!

In the meantime, let's connect on the 'Interwebs' because I'd love to know more about where you are on your journey of fitness and active living, whether it involves walking, strength training, or even women's cycling. Here's where you'll find me: Slowpoke Divas' Facebook page, Slowpoke Divas' Instagram, Slowpoke Divas TV on YouTube, and my public Bonnie Parrish-Kell Facebook page.

LET'S GO WALKING, BICYCLING & EXPLORING!

Walking

Bicycling

Walking is what we humans do. Whether you opt for daily casual strolls, fitness walking for overall wellness, or take up the sports of power walk or race walk for motivation or competition, you'll discover that walking, alongside activities like bicycling and strength training, is one of the most accessible, affordable, and appealing exercises around. For women, incorporating walking into a routine enhances women's fitness and complements other activities like women's cycling.

Bicycling

Bicycling

The bicycle has long been a symbol and a means of women’s freedom of movement, enhancing women’s cycling and fitness. What catches your fancy? A road bike for senior games' racing as part of your strength training regimen? A mountain bike to enjoy nature while walking through scenic trails? How about an electric three-wheel adult trike that offers stability and comfort for leisurely rides? Saddle up, let's ride!

What better way to stay motivated about women's fitness than to plan a trip to a destination with walkable communities and scenic routes for walking and bicycling? I'll share information and details about destinations that welcome us walkers and support women's cycling and strength training!

TOPICS THAT IMPACT ACTIVE LIVING

Strength & Mobility

Perhaps the best benefit I get from my walking and bicycling training programs, along with strength training, is having the strength, agility, and endurance needed for daily living. Maintaining -- even gaining -- my muscle mass, sense of balance, coordination, reaction time, and more through women's fitness activities will help me live independently for as long as possible.

Mind Games

Dare to dream big! Try something scary or new, like taking up walking, strength training, or even women's cycling. Let's examine how limiting beliefs, age-old myths, and unrealistic expectations set by society, advertisers, and even ourselves keep us stuck. Our journey toward improved fitness and joyful living, including activities like bicycling and women's fitness, begins with how we think about ourselves.

Advocacy

Meet the people -- individuals, activists, community organizers, urban planners -- across the United States and Canada working to 1) protect open spaces, 2) improve roadway safety for pedestrians and bicyclists, and 3) encourage women to engage in bicycling, walking, running, and strength training in their communities, promoting women's cycling and women's fitness.

My Latest Blog Posts

"I love what your website is [a] place for seniors to find so much wonderful info...When I go to sporting goods stores or see advertisements there is no one who looks like me...why do people 50+ not rate? On your site we do. I appreciate that."

Featured Video from Slowpoke Divas TV on YouTube

A Viewers' Favorite!  


The "Race Walking vs. Power Walking" video highlights the key differences between two competitive walking sports that appeal to enthusiasts of women's fitness. Race walking is featured at numerous USA Track & Field Masters meets (ages 30+) and senior games competitions, showcasing the athleticism similar to that found in women's cycling events. On the other hand, power walking is recognized as a sport at the National Senior Games and most senior games competitions across the U.S., aligning well with broader interests in walking and strength training activities.
