 Welcome to the Team Walking Challenge!!

 

Walking is one of the easiest ways to increase your daily activity level and get a bunch of health benefits, like lower blood pressure and cholesterol, better mood, and more. Plus, when you walk with a team, you're more likely to stay motivated and finish the challenge!
