Or, maybe consider the Oasis Zoo Race September 22- a fabulous Panda T-shirt and medal. Both 10 and 5K distances. A fun race around the Torornto Zoo!
from Olwyn:
A new study brings good news to walkers, and especially to those who favour a brisker pace. The faster you walk, the more you may be prolonging your lifespan, the researchers have found. It's a known fact that walking can help to protect our health and prolong our lives. Walking for as little as 2 hours per week brings down the risk of all-cause mortality. This activity has also been linked with enhanced cognitive abilities and better psychological well-being.
