Walking Works
National Walk to Work Day - Friday 1 October 2010.
Walk to Work Day is an annual event which helps employers and employees to build regular walking into their daily routine.
It's easy:
- If you can't walk all the way, use public transport and get off the bus or train a few stops earlier and walk the rest of the way to work.
- If you must drive, leave the car at least a kilometre from your destination and walk the rest of the way.
- Take a half-hour walk at lunchtime and where possible use the stairs.
- If you are required to sit a lot at work, get up and walk around at least once an hour.
