Delaware Leads the Nation in... Worst at Exercising
Charles Vincent
Did you know that Delaware ranks last among the states in the percentage of its population that exercises frequently? According to a 2014 Gallup poll (using 2013 data), only 46.5% of Delawareans report exercising for at least 30 minutes 3 or more days per week. How can we start to solve this problem? By making the time to exercise more!
The Delaware Charity Challenge offers a fun way that aligns well with anyone's goal of getting more fit. Sign up to run or walk in one of the 5K races on Saturday, May 2, 2015 at Lums Pond. Form a team and get your friends to join you. And if you're looking for an even more fun challenge, put a team in the Adventure Challenge Relay.
With less than five months to go, you will have plenty of time to train. Finishing a 5K, no matter what your skill or talent level, always has its own personal rewards.
