Walk across Texas!

Description

If you have been looking for that extra motivation to start your New Year off in healthy fashion, then look no further. Gather a group of friends and co-workers and join us as we walk across the Lone Star State for health!

Walk Across Texas! is an eight-week fitness program that was created by the Texas AgriLife Extension Service in 1996 to help Texans establish the habit of regular physical activity. The goal is for your team of eight to walk 830 miles across the state of Texas. It’s a program that motivates people to make the most important change…to get started.

Join us for the special Kick-Off Event Saturday, February 11th at 10:00 a.m. at the Post Oak Mall, in the JCPenney shopping area, in College Station. All you need is a team of eight people and a desire to get moving. So dust off your walking shoes and prepare to join us on this 8-week journey across Texas. The eight week period begins February 11 and runs through April 14, 2011. There will be a total of three motivational celebrations along the way: Kick-off February 11, Recharge March 3, and the Last Mile Celebration Event April 14.
