Walk with a Doc
- Date: 08/06/2022 8:30 AM
- Location: Island Ford in Sandy Springs
Island Ford Pkwy
Sandy Springs, Georgia 30350 - Introduction: at Island Ford in Sandy Springs
According to the American Heart Association, walking has the lowest dropout rate of any physical activity. Think it doesn't do any good? Think again. Walking is low impact and easier on the joints than running. It is safe – with a doctor's okay – for people with orthopedic ailments, heart conditions, and those who are more than 20% overweight. In addition, research has shown that you could gain two hours of life for each hour of regular exercise! That quick stroll around the block seems a little more worthwhile now, doesn't it?
Walk with a Doc is a free walking program for everyone interested in taking steps for a healthier lifestyle. You'll take a few minutes to learn about a current health topic from a healthcare provider, then spend the rest of the hour enjoying a healthy walk and fun conversation. It's a great way to get out, get active, and enjoy all the benefits that come from walking. Walk your own pace and distance. No registration necessary, unless otherwise indicated.
