Walk Your Way to Better Health

There’s a lot you can do to stay fit—running, yoga, exercise classes, swimming, biking—the list goes on. But did you know that the most doctor-recommended prescription for staying fit is walking? It’s easy, safe, free, and most importantly—great for your health and well-being.

To help you walk your way to better health, Mercy Medical Center has coordinated and is sponsoring a free walking program for the Cedar Rapids community.

 

As a Steps2Health participant, you’ll receive:

  • Walking log to track your walks
  • Mileage rewards—walking logs returned for monthly prize drawings
  • Monthly health seminars and screenings by health-care professionals from Mercy Medical Center

Take the first step towards improving your health and well-being:

How do I begin? It’s free…it’s convenient…it’s fun!

Why walk? Who knew that simply putting one foot in front of the other, you could have such an impact on your well-being?

Gearing up: Be safe and comfortable while you walk.

Hit the Streets: Hit the trails, the sidewalk, the streets, the track, anywhere you can put you feet in motion.

Tips/Resources: If you’ve got questions, we’ve got answers. Some helpful tips and links to valuable resources.
