Healthy Boiler Walking Group
Alumni Plaza A
The Healthy Boiler Walking Group is a great way to get together with your friends on campus, meet new people, and take a 30-minute break from sitting. Employee health coach Lindsay Bloom will meet you at noon at the Mastodon sculpture outside the Helmke Library. Note: The group will meet on Mondays in July beginning July 12. In case of rain, we will meet at the Java Spot in Walb Union to walk indoors. Please wear comfortable walking shoes. Open to all employees.
According to the Arthritis Foundation, some of the benefits of walking include:
- Improves circulation by raising your heart rate, lowering blood pressure, and strengthening your heart.
- Decreases the loss of bone mass.
- Lightens your mood by releasing endorphins to the body, one of the emotional benefits of exercise.
