Walk to Work Week...

Walk to Work Week: 23 - 30 April

After watching the London Marathon last Sunday we bet there's a few people who are considering reviving their New Year's resolutions to get fit.

So we thought we'd help nudge you in the right direction. Why not join in with Walk to Work week?  It's dead simple. You can pledge to walk at least 15 mins more than normal and the Walk to Work team will send you hints and tips to help get you started. For the competitive amongst you - why not challenge another department or business to do the same too? Plus we all know walking is the greenest transport option. So you can feel healthy and smug at the same time! Now you can't always say that after a jog around the park can you?

If this all sounds familiar it's because Living Streets the charity behind the idea also runs WoW (Walk once a Week) for primary schools too. So why not set an example to your kids or challenge your mates to see how long it will take you to burn off that lunchtime muffin ?  There's a nifty tool on the site that will calculate it for you, so what more incentive do you need?
