Taking a walk is one of the simplest, safest and most effective forms of exercise. In fact, walking at a pace of 3 mph can substantially reduce the risk of developing heart disease, stroke and diabetes. National Walk@Lunch Day provides the perfect opportunity to get up from your desk and get on your feet for a 30‐minute walk. Remember to bring your comfortable shoes to work on April 24, then grab a co‐worker and get out and walk!
