The CDC recommends that we get 2 ½ hours of physical activity each week, but for many of us it’s a challenge to keep up an exercise routine. Do the Monday Mile with CPLD – and commit to staying fit throughout the week! Meet at the Hughes entrance of Old Main every Monday at Noon while classes are in session. The walk only takes about 20 minutes and is a great way to relieve stress and get to know peers and colleagues in an informal setting. For more information please contact Katie Martoche, assistant director for Campus Programming & Leadership Development (CPLD) at x2190.
