Heart Month 

February is Heart Month. We all know exercise and a good diet can keep your heart healthy. But there are other things you can do to keep your heart pumping strong!

Get More Sleep: Sleep habits can have a lasting effect on your overall health. Sleeping seven or eight hours per night is a marker of good heart health.

Move More: Physical activity can dramatically reduce the risk of heart disease and stroke, so make a goal to move more for your heart health. To keep it simple, you can aim for 30 minutes a day, 5 days a week of moderate exercise. Get out of the cold and take advantage of our walking track to get your daily 30 minutes in!



Connect With People: Make it a priority to spend time with people you’re close to. Talk, laugh, and workout with each other! It’s good for your emotional health and your heart.

Challenge yourself to walk, jog or run 500 miles in 2023.That's only 1.4 miles per day or less than 10 miles per week to stay on pace.

Log your miles at the fitness desk every time you use the indoor track or a treadmill at Fountain View Fitness. Earn a prize and recognition as you achieve each goal at 125, 250, 375, and 500 miles. Members completing 500 miles within 2023 can win a free membership for 2024.

This challenge is for all-inclusive fitness members and paid indoor walking track members only. Participation can begin at any point in 2023.
