Celebrate San Francisco’s annual, fun and festive day of encouragement for the most healthy, sustainable form of transportation you can choose: walking. Join the movement on Friday, April 11 — anyone can participate, just 15 minutes of your commute counts (whether you walk to work, class, or shop)! Remember, every single trip – by bike, by bus or rail, or by car – starts and ends with walking. Just half an hour of walking a day reduces health risks, improves your mood — and lengthens your life, too. Plus, when you choose to walk for short trips (<1 mile), you help reduce San Francisco’s carbon emissions by 800,000 pounds a year. Start your healthy walking habit and get rewarded at one of the Walk to Work Day Hubs. Stop by for a FREE Clipper Card, Clif Bar or breakfast snack, reusable tote, “I Walk SF” decal, and FREE or discounted coffee, plus much more! (see map at http://walk2workday.org) Use the #walk2work hashtag to win prizes for the “Longest Commute,” “Most Interesting Sight,” and “Best Shoe Bling” contests by posting on Twitter, Facebook or Instagram.
