The Ocean Keys Mall Walking Program is run by the Heart Foundation in association with Ocean Keys Shopping centre and will commence Monday 6 May with all ages welcome to join.
Mall walkers will meet every Monday at 8am near the information desk before commencing their walk through malls at their own pace - a great way to meet new people, you could go for a coffee and chat afterwards!
Walking regularly will help:
Reduce your risk of heart disease, stroke and developing some cancers.
Manage weight, blood pressure and blood cholesterol.
Prevent and control diabetes.
Maintain your bone density, reducing your risk of osteoporosis and fractures.
Improve balance and coordination, reducing your risk of falls and other injuries.
Improve your daily mood which ultimately leads to better mental health.
