The county extension service will sponsor Walk Kansas from March 16 to May 10. The eight-week program will focus on helping participants be more active, make better nutrition choices, and learn ways to deal with stress.
It is a team event that challenges participants to meet increasing levels of exercise. Participants will log and report their exercise each week. There will be weekly newsletters with exercise and nutrition tips, a recipe, and stress management ideas.
There will be a kickoff event at 3 p.m. March 16 at USD 408 Sports and Aquatic Center in Marion.
There is a $5 fee per person. Registration is due March 4. For more information, contact Nancy Pihl at npihl@ksu.edu.
