Description

Walking is a great way to get the physical activity needed to obtain health benefits. Walking does not require any special skills, a gym membership or expensive equipment. A single bout of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity can improve sleep, memory, and the ability to think and learn. It also reduces anxiety symptoms. The CDC recommends getting 150 minutes per week of physical activity, this class will help achieve at least 110 minutes of much needed exercise. There will be a gradual increase in the distance or time goals for each class. P/NP grading only. May be repeated 8 times for credit. Additional course information for fall 2020.
