REMAINING SCHEDULED WALKS:

September 23 - WALK IS CANCELLED DUE TO EXPECTED RAIN

•

  Location: MDC Reservoir #4, West Hartford

(1420 Farmington Ave.)

We'll gather in the parking lot, get organized, and begin with a brief health tip centered around our theme for the month (see above). 

Then we'll leave the parking lot promptly at 9:35 and enjoy a walk together. 

Walking together outdoors in green spaces is a fantastic way to improve our health & well-being.

  • Vitamin D produces serotonin, benefiting our mood and our memory.
  • Being in nature is relaxing, reducing our stress, cortisol levels, muscle tension, and heart rates – all of which are risk factors for cardiovascular disease.
  • Walking likely helps grow new brain cells and increase the size of the hippocampus, warding off the risk of cognitive decline.
  • Social connectedness reduces loneliness, improving our sense of belonging and our happiness, and reducing the risk of anxiety, depression, heart disease, stroke and dementia.
  • Intergenerational interaction improves connectedness and reduces ageism, improving health and well-being.

Every person walking will receive a custom logo bracelet!

Let us know you'll be joining us! (sign up each month)
