Heart Month Walking Challenge 2010
Each year thousands of Heart Month volunteers across the province canvass door to door in support of the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Nova Scotia. This year, partnering with Heart&Stroke Walkabout, the Foundation wants to find out how far Heart Month volunteers walk during this special month.
From February 1 to February 28, 2010, Heart Month volunteers are asked to log their steps in the Heart Month walking challenge walking group on the Walkabout website. All participants will be entered into a
draw to win cool prizes, which could include a Heart and Stroke Foundation CPR AnytimeTM Family & FriendsTM Kit, jackets, Swiss Army watch, reflective armbands, pedometers and more!
When Heart Month volunteers log their steps in the Heart Month challenge walking group, we’ll be able to estimate the number of steps and distance logged throughout the entire month of canvassing. Funds raised during Heart Month support vital heart and stroke research and health promotion initiatives.
Whether or not you participate, make walking part of your activities in the New Year and keep moving this winter!
