Vitality Ambassadors take local parkwalks by storm: How to join the fun

At Vitality, we know that small healthy habits can make a big difference to our lives.

Walking, in particular, is one habit that most of us can adopt to our daily lives and see immediate benefits – not just for our physical, but mental health too.

That’s why Vitality has teamed up with parkrun to help relaunch it’s parkwalk initiative; and to celebrate, we have asked our star-studded roster of Ambassadors to take part in a parkwalk near them over the next five weeks.

Opening play at Sheffield’s Millhouses parkrun on 29 March is England cricketer Joe Root, who is slowing down for a walk with his family.

Why not join him and go for a walk at your local parkrun this Saturday; bring along your friends and family and connect at a parkwalk. You can find your nearest event here.

Not only will you reap the benefits of community walking, but you’ll also be part of the official build-up towards the biggest-ever parkwalk event on 26 April.

We look forward to seeing you there. Tune in next week to find out how many walkers took part and which of our Ambassadors will be walking at their local parkrun next.

Tune in to watch another of Vitality’s Ambassadors explain what parkwalk is and how to get started today.
