Sedentary living and the rising cost of healthcare cost everyone. Businesses lose billions of dollars in preventable health care costs and productivity losses, and individuals pay a higher cost—their lives.
The Start! movement is built on a simple premise – walk more, eat well and you’ll live longer. Whether you’re at work or at home, walking is the first step to a healthier lifestyle.
