April 1 to 7 every year -- Includes the traditional "National Walking Day" on the first Wednesday in April
In January 2020, the Board of Directors of the AVA: America's Walking Club, declared the first seven days of April to be "National Walking Week" which would include the traditional "National Walking Day" sponsored by the American Heart Association from 2007 to 2019.
Take the Challenge and Walk for Lots of Reasons
Every walker has a different motivation to get moving. What is yours?
- Is it to find emotional health, or to learn and see something new through cultural or scenic tourism?
- Is it to support physical health for heart, arthritis, diabetes, mitigate aging; or how about a physical challenge?
- Is it to assist with relationship, or community connections as a form of transportation?
- Is it to seek spiritual connection?
Join the growing list of organizations and communities coming together to celebrate walking during the first week in April
Walking organizations, communites, and government bodies are coming together to celebrate walking for all the reasons mentioned above. Interested in adding your logo or name? Email info@nationalwalkingweek.org.
