OMAHA, Neb. (AP) – Thousands of Nebraskans are expected to participate in this year’s “National Walk at Lunch” event later this month.
The Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Nebraska event is slated for April 25.
To date, 7,500 people and 65 organizations across the state have committed to this year’s walk. Nebraskans can register themselves, their friends or their businesses and learn more by visiting www.nebraskablue.com.
Businesses and schools organize their own walks, choosing a time and place that is most convenient, while individuals walk at their leisure. So far, 35 Nebraska cities, from Omaha to Scottsbluff, have organizations or individuals signed up to walk.
The event is designed to encourage healthy living habits for a lifetime.
