Want to exercise but not sure where to start? Walking is one of the best forms of exercise.
Did you know that walking is a form of weight bearing exercise? Weight bearing exercise helps
increase bone density which then helps prevent osteoporosis. The Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention/American College of Sports Medicine recommend 30 minutes of moderate-in-
tensity activities 5 or more days a week.
Regular physical activity significantly reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease and risk fac-
tors such as high blood pressure, diabetes and obesity. So find a friend and start walking! Please
adhere to our designated lanes for walkers and runners as well as the designated direction for
that day. Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sundays-Clockwise/Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday-
Counter Clockwise. If you need some help keeping track of the laps you’ve walked, stop by the
front desk and purchase a tally counter to log your laps and miles. Children under 12 must be
accompanied by an adult at all times. Stroller times are limited to Monday-Friday 8:00 am – 3:00
