We all have places to go, people to see, and things to
do. October’s healthy habit challenge
is to incorporate active transportation into your regular activities. Headed somewhere close by? Consider walking or biking. Headed somewhere far away? Why not try public transportation? You’ll still get some walking in on your way
to and from bus stops and transfer points.
Is public transportation not convenient for you? Consider a hybrid trip where you drive most
of the way, but park a few blocks from where you need to go, so you can add on
some walking to and from your car.
Active transportation may take a little longer, but with a little bit of
planning can be a great way to increase your daily physical activity and insert
periods of natural stress relief into your busy schedule. Use the chart emailed to you to track how many trips
this month you incorporate some form of active transportation into, and kids,
don’t forget International Walk to School Day on Wednesday, October 3rd.

How did you do with alternative transportation? I didn't do a lot but occasionally parked in one spot and walked to several different stores rather than drive from one to the other.
This is Judy, not Mark.
