Subject Gangdong-gu encourages office workers to 'walk for 30 minutes per day'

On October 17, Gangdong-gu made it clear that ‘Walking 30 minutes per day project’ is highly encouraged to enable personnel to walk for exercise with their co-workers in lunchtime every Wednesday.
Walking is a fundamental physical activity that can enhance circulation and respiratory function which leads to the prevention of metabolic syndromes and chronic diseases caused by lack of exercise.
Gangdong-gu is establishing and managing ‘Exercise Walking signal lights information boards’ in every community service center within the province to routinize exercise walking, which can be easily practiced in daily life.
Moreover, office workers who cannot take care of their own health because of busy work life are also encouraged to walk for exercise for 30 minutes every day.
Every Wednesday, office workers who hope to exercise regularly gather under the wisteria at Gangdong-gu health center to stretch for a feww minutes and take a walk around Gangdongdaero and Olympic Park in lunchtime.
“It is important to make it habit to walk instead of using cars in your daily lives. Taking off the bus a few stations before your destination, Parking your car far from the place as possible as you can and walking the rest of the distance, Using stairs instead of using elevators, there are pretty lots of things that you can do in your daily life. One of the Gangdong-gu officials said, “During those 30 minutes of walking for exercise, co-workers will get chance to communicate with each other, and it will lead to the increase of business efficiency.”
