GirlTrek's mission is to inspire one million Black women and girls to develop a daily habit of walking. Did you know that walking just 30 minutes a day, 5 days a week can dramatically reduce the risk of preventable chronic diseases such as diabetes and heart disease? On Saturdays, GirlTrek’s Neighborhood Captains rise & shine, lace up their sneakers, grab their sister-friends and host Superhero Saturday walks in their communities all across the country. Women of all fitness levels are welcome and encouraged to attend. Just click this link https://www.girltrek.org/find_a_walk, type in your zip code and see if there is a Superhero Saturday Walk happening in your neighborhood. #WalkWithGirlTrek #SuperheroSaturdays #SelfCare
