The Minds in Motion KW Walking Classic (the Walk) is a premier event designed to showcase walking as a challenging athletic activity. It provides an opportunity for all walkers from recreational to competitive to participate in a walking only event.
More importantly, the Walk supports those individuals who are facing mental health challenges and who are interested in becoming physically active. The link between physical health and mental health has been well documented. People who are active are more able to deal effectively with stress, depression and anxiety. The success of Waterloo Region's People in Motion campaign is an example of this. The program promotes a healthy lifestyle and provides an active fitness oriented experience for its participants.
