Walk with a Doc @ Houghton's Pond Parking Lot A- | Milton | Massachusetts | United States

This walking program is a fun and safe place to take a walk (at your pace), learn health tips from local healthcare professionals, and meet new people. The event is FREE and all are welcome!

Walking is SO GOOD for you!  It is low impact and easier on the joints than running. Walking is safe and helpful for people with orthopedic ailments, heart conditions, and those who are overweight.  Walk with a Doc is a program for everyone interested in taking steps for a healthier lifestyle.  In the first few minutes you will learn about a health topic from a  professional, then spend the rest of the hour enjoying a nice walk in nature and fun conversation. It’s a great way to get out, get active, and enjoy all the benefits that come from walking. You will walk at your own pace and comfortable distance.
