Salem Run@Work Day

For those who work in and around the Salem area,


Salem Park & Recreation and the Wicked Running Club will be hosting the 3rd
Annual Annual Salem Run@Work Day on Friday, September 20, 2013 at 12:30pm.
There will be a fun run from the Salem Common to the Willows and back on
National Run@Work Day. The event is free to participate in and there will be
free Run@Work Day shirts available (first 75 runners) as well as refreshments.


After the run, take a few minutes to check out

some of the local vendors that will be participating in this event before

heading back to work. Salem Park and Recreation along with the Wicked Running
Club will have information about the many great programs they both offer the
City of Salem.



The goal of Run@Work Day is to raise awareness
about the importance of daily physical activity for adults. National Run@Work
Day events are community based events that promote and provide the opportunity
for individuals to incorporate at least 30-minutes of exercise, in accordance
with the National Physical Activity Guidelines, into their daily routine either
before work, during lunch, or immediately following work. Incorporating
exercise into one’s daily routine can markedly improve one’s overall physical
health.
