Activity Report: Just Move It! 30-minute walk
Contributed by: Just Move It! 1 & 2 Mile Run/Walk
Completed 3/29/06 with 127 participants
A 30-minute walk was scheduled between 11:30 - 1:00 at work. Employees were encouraged to walk the daily recommendation of physical activity by the Surgeon General (30 minutes) on either a flat or hilly course. Employees were given refreshments, incentives and educational information. Door prizes were given also.
Best Features:
# of participants; I did not expect to see that many employees and some family members to come out.
Creative Features:
Making it a timed walk rather than a 1 or 2 mile walk and giving them the option of walking a flat or hilly course.
Challenges:
The only challenge was the weather. Rain was forecasted for the day, but it waited until the walk was over!
Future Plans:
Last Wednesday of the month is designated as the Just Move It 30-minute Wednesday Walk.
