Learn about 'Exercise As Medicine' & enjoy a healthy walk
Get out, get active, and enjoy all the benefits that come from walking! This Just Walk session is led by Burlington Family Health Team. First, understand the concept of "Exercise as Medicine"—including the importance of "dosage" with exercise in order to achieve optimal results. And then spend the rest of the hour enjoying a healthy walk and lively conversation.
Please arrive 10 minutes before the walk. Meet us near the Fireplace at Tansley Woods Branch. We will then move to the outdoor space facing the grassy field, just in front of the library parking lot (just south of Upper Middle).
Walking is a wonderful form of physical activity and we encourage all levels of walking ability to participate in this event—whether you complete the entire walk or join us for part of the journey! Walking devices, mobility aids, and walking companions are welcome. All participants must sign a waiver, which is provided at the start of the walk.
Presented in partnership with the Burlington Family Health Team and Just Walk
