{The Basics}
-
A summer
wellness/nature program to get you outdoors and
exercising!
-
Open to all ages!
-
The CEC Staff and
Board will hike 1,000 miles between Memorial Day
and Labor Day- we challenge our community (and
beyond) to hike a collaborative 10,000 miles!
CONGRATULATIONS! WE HAVE SURPASSED OUR GOAL AND
HAVE NOW RAISED THE BAR: CAN WE GET TO 15,000
MILES BY LABOR DAY?
-
Walk, run, or hike
ANYWHERE OUTSIDE with incentives along the way!
Active participants (by July 15th) are invited
to a half-way point pool party celebration!
We also have weekly drawings for great prizes
and CEC gear! 2 of your miles must be
hiked at Cope Environmental Center to qualify
for certain prizes.
-
Log your active
minutes and miles on this website or in the
logbook at one of CEC's trailheads. If
your club, group, business, or organization
would like your own logbook, please email Anna
at
annafhetzel@gmail.com.
-
Part of a group?
Get them involved, too! We even have
fundraising ideas to help boost your efforts
this summer!
-
Own a business?
Challenge your office to "hike themselves
healthy" this summer and offer a great incentive
to the winner (example: paid day off, lunch
coupons, etc.). Healthy employees = lower
healthcare costs!
-
Is your business or
group ready for a little friendly competition?
Great! The group or business with the
highest average minutes at the end of the
program will win a great package which includes:
10 minute chair massages for your top ten
employees (they come to you!) and an office
party generously catered by
Chipotle!
{How Are We Doing?}
These progress charts are
updated weekly. If your group or business would
like to have an online meter, just let us know!
This is
the final tally of miles for Hike Yourself Healthy 2011!

{Ideas}
-
Introduce the idea of
evening after-dinner walks with the family.
What a great time to catch up with each other, enjoy
the outdoors and develop a healthy habit!
-
A business in town will be
rewarding their employee participants with a pizza
party! Why not reward great behavior?!
-
Go to the HELP Shelter and
walk a dog. They'll be thrilled to spend time
with you!
-
Check out the Whitewater
Gorge Trail (jump on at N 3rd St.). While
you're there, check out the "new" Family Fitness
Works facility- much of the building was repurposed
from parts of the old hospital!
-
Walk Uptown Richmond.
We are so fortunate to have a very walk-able
downtown area. New stores seem to be popping
up frequently, so take a stroll! You can end
your walk at the Clear Creek Co-op- they just moved
to 710 East Main St. Grab a healthy drink or
snack!
-
Knock on a neighbor's door
and ask them to join you. Use your walk to get to
know one another better!
-
Stories about your
experience? Have something to share with us?
Send
them to us! And photos too! We'd love to hear about it! Check out the Hike
Yourself Healthy
tumblr blog, where you can see where the community is
walking and more ideas!
