We invite you to
take the first step Walk the Walk Brochure - printable pdf Where do I walk? We have measured space along Main Street, Gloucester Point Beach Park, Beaverdam Park, Ark Park and Abingdon Park. There is a 400 meter track behind Page Middle School and one at Bethel Elementary School.But I need more help, what can I do? Use a walking log, it will help you to see your accomplishments. By logging your walks you can track where you enjoyed walking, where you disliked walking, walking partners, walking challenges and walking extras, like birds, sunsets, etc. Use a measuring device, like a pedometer, they are inexpensive and provide a measuring device for comparison.What else can I do? Food journals also help. It's easy to forget what you have consumed in a day. Jot it down to see times of day or circumstances that are causing you problems. Who should “Walk the Walk?” EVERYONE! This simple act can greatly improve your health, not to mention the benefits of getting a little fresh air!
