2018 "Walking for Wellness" theme for this year's Walking Lake Pepin active living challenge.

Walking Lake Pepin 2018 starts on Sunday June 3 and continues for 10 week ending Saturday August 11.  As in previous years Lake City residents are encouraged to sign up and commit to increasing their physical activity over the 10 week period of the challenge.   This year's theme was chosen to highlight the health benefits of exercise and physical activity.  "Exercise is Medicine" has been demonstrated in research studies resulting in  prevention of  heart disease, stroke, diabetes, obesity, dementia and premature death.  Physical activity is  powerful medicine leading to improved physical, mental and emotional wellness.  Check out the sign up page to find out how to participate.  Come join us.  You will be glad you did.
