Healthy Steps is a free walking program offered by the Ohio & Erie Canalway Coalition. It is a competition that encourages people of all ages to step toward better health by walking and discovering the beauty of the 101 mile Ohio & Erie Canal Towpath Trail.
A simple 30 minute walk daily can increase employee concentration and decrease chances of heart disease, cancer and diabetes. Join the Corporate Challenge this spring.
The first 250 registrants will receive a free pedometer. Employee teams track their own steps and compete with teams for prizes. Enjoy Towpath Tuesday's, sponsored by Akron General Health System. Each Tuesday, starting at noon, a group of walkers will leave from the Richard Howe house on a variety of fun hikes through Downtown Akron. Healthy Steps will conclude on May 31.
Register your team today at www.ohioeriecanal.org or call Sarah at 330-434-5657. Attend the kickoff event at Lock 3 in Downtown Akron on Friday, April 15, 11:30 a.m.-1 p.m. to pick up your free pedometer, listen to messages to get you motivated and enjoy a free lunch.
