August 2023 31-Day Walking Challenge

This is the Walking Challenge for August.

Walking is simple, free and one of the easiest ways to get more active, lose weight and become healthier.

Sometimes overlooked as a form of exercise, walking briskly can help you build stamina, burn excess calories, and make your heart healthier.

Set a monthly goal and post your steps daily. Setting a specific goal will make sure that you stay accountable and get enough walking in to make a difference.

You can use a Fitbit or a pedometer app on your mobile phone, for example, to track your daily steps or the distance of your workouts.
