Let's Walk!


Walking is a great form of physical exercise. Not only does walking help control weight, it helps one live longer, lowers rates of heart disease, depression, strokes, and some cancers.

The recommended amount of aerobic physical activity for adults is 150 minutes per week. This averages about 22 minutes per day. One way to get your aerobic activity in for the day is to walk more. Instead of driving to lunch daily, why not walk?

Below are local restaurants that are near the Health and Justice Building.

If you are going to go out to eat, walk to one of these nearby locations and treat yourself to something healthy.

Bon Appétit!
