Footsteps 4 Fitness

Footsteps 4 Fitness, was a fun, six-week program designed to help you become more physically active.

The program was simple and is easy to continue on your own. Clip a pedometer to your waistband when you get up in the morning and wear it all day to track your steps. Work at your own pace toward a goal of 10,000 steps most days of the week.

Vist the Footsteps 4 Fitness website for more information about walking in general and suggestions for walking around Hibbing.

If you had participated in this program this summer, please let us know how you did by completing our Comment form.
