The month of October is being transformed into “WٴDz” for 2014. Walking groups are being assembled to track activity, motivate each other, and support the goal of increasing physical activity among employees at ĢAV. While a daily goal of 10,000 steps is agreed to provide health benefits, the overall goal of Walktober is participation and increasing current levels of physical activity.
This initiative is being coordinated with support from the Heart and Stroke Foundation, the President’s Office, and Human Resources, and coincides with October being National Healthy Workplace Month.
