 Why Walking?

Relax, get and stay fit and meet new people.

Did you know?

....walking a mile uses the same amount of calories as running a mile?

A 30 minute walk can...

• Give you more energy
• Help control weight
• Keep your heart strong
• Help decrease stress levels
• Lower blood pressure

• Help you sleep better

So why not join us......its FREE!

It's the most natural and accessible exercise you can do.

It's fun and motivating !

It's a great chance to meet new people and make new friends
