Walk with a Doc: Let’s get some exercise and talk health!
Join us for a monthly talk to improve your health and live longer. Walk with a Doc meets once a month at UPEI. Walk at your own pace and chat with local health care professionals (please note that this should not replace a meeting with a healthcare provider). All walks are free. No registration is required. All ages and abilities are welcome.
The first walk will be at 9 am at the UPEI outdoor track on Saturday, September 28.
Each walk begins with a five-minute talk on a health-related topic led by a physician or other healthcare professional, followed by a one-hour, self-paced walk. Walk with a Doc will meet once a month from September to June. In warmer months, the events will be at the UPEI outdoor track, and in winter they will move to the indoor track in the Chi-Wan Young Sports Centre.
The first walk will be led by Dr. Melanie Banasch, who will give a short talk about the health benefits of exercise.
