Come Out and Join Us for a Walk!
February is Heart Health Month. Taking care of your heart health at any age is important to help prevent heart disease and lower your risk for a heart attack or stroke. To celebrate, we are encouraging everyone to walk Georgia Tech’s campus. A simple way to support one’s heart health is by being active for at least 30 minutes.
On February 6-10, 11:00 a.m.- 1:00 p.m., the CRC will be talking about heart health in different locations around campus. Special location provided by Auxiliary Services with their partners at Tech Square and Athletics. You can use each day’s suggested route or walk for 30 minutes to meet us at the station. The first 100 to visit us each day will get a T-shirt. Each day you participate you will be entered into a drawing for prizes from the CRC.
