Walking groups are being assembled to track activity, motivate each other, and support the goal of increasing physical activity among employees at HÂþ»­. While a daily goal of 10,000 steps is agreed to provide health benefits, the overall goal of Walktober is participation and increasing current levels of physical activity. Dal employees are welcome to stop by Dalplex and receive a free pedometer.
