Walktober Is On Again

Submitted by Healthy Families on 15/09/09

There are so many good reasons to walk! Make sure your school is part of Walktober this October.

Walking creates healthier, happier individuals, safer communities, cleaner and more liveable environments and improves the efficiency of our transport system. Walktober gives people the opportunity to walk—to walk more often, to walk to more places.
 
Throughout the month of October, Walktober presents heaps of activities and events about walking, including the: Community Challenge; Workplace Challenge; Walk-to-School Day and the Victorian Seniors Festival ‘Go for your life’ Walks Program.

Last year over 500 events and 90,000 people participated in Walktober – in Victoria, Queensland and other states. Walktober is hoping even more will get involved this year! There are so many ways you can be part of Walktober. Visit the Walktober website for some easy ideas to help you, your community group or your workplace promote walking.
