Get Walkin`

Lack of physical activity is directly related to the occurrence of adult obesity and overweight. Regular physical activity can lower risk of heart disease, high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, osteoporosis, depression, and falls in older adults. Need some motivation but don’t have time to attend a class? Get WalkIN’ is a free e-mail based walking initiative being offered through Purdue Extension in Hendricks County. Participants can sign-up, walk on their own, or with a group, and receive e-mailed support and information. Participants will be asked to complete two short online surveys.
