This is the time of year when life gets hectic, temptations are all around (think: cider donuts & apple pie), and diet and health plans go out the window. “I’ll start when the New Year arrives”

Fall is the perfect time of year to start your walking/running plans — there are dozens of charity walks to participate in. Walk around your local park and take in the beauty of the fall colors while listening to your favorite music. Walk and chat with friends to keep in contact and catch up on each others lives. Take the kids on a nature walk or to the local park. Making activity a normal part of kids' lives can lead to a lifetime of healthy living!
