Walk Across Tennessee

People Walking
Did you know that people who routinely walk for exercise control their weight and vital health numbers better? They also sleep and feel generally better.
Group of people walking
During the Walk Across Tennessee challenge, you can log miles by hiking, walking on a path or treadmill, or by using the mileage conversion chart. However, this challenge is intentional exercise, NOT counting steps or routine daily activities.
Elderly people walking
To complete the registration, the captain registers the team AND each individual team member must register for liability purposes. A parent or guardian must register for children and youth under 21 years of age.

Teams are made up of 4 people. Team members do not have to walk together but can encourage one another. Get started by asking 3 people to join you! Children, youth and adults can participate.

Are you ready to get on the path to lifetime wellness through physical activity or encourage others to join you on yours? Have you talked about starting to exercise with family, friends or co-workers?
