Wednesday, April 25th, is the scheduled day for the Live Well Geary County Local Walk@lunch event at the Fifth Street Playground Park.

Did you know that finding just 30 minutes to walk most days of the week can be beneficial to your well-being. Walking is one of the simplest, safest and most effective forms of exercise. A regular walking routine can help control weight, reduce stress and anxiety, lower blood pressure and be a positive influence on heart disease, diabetes and osteoporosis.

Live Well officials have announced that Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Kansas is hosting the 12th annual National Walk@Lunch Day on the 25th.

The local event will be at noon on the 25th at the Playground Park. A limited number of free event t-shirts will be available at the event location.
