Virtual Walk With a Doc

April 18, 2020

Date: Every Saturday

Time: 9:00 a.m. starting time

Location: This is a virtual event

With many in-person Walk with a Doc events around the world being postponed due to the novel COVID-19 virus, our team has decided to start hosting virtual WWAD events so that we can remain active and socially connected, even during a period of physical distancing. The format will be the same as a typical WWAD event. Check out the steps below for more details!

Step 1: Health Talk

Every Saturday morning at 9:00 AM ET we will post a video where WWAD Leaders from around the world will be sharing updates on COVID-19 and other important health topics! Mark your calendars and tune in at that time, or as soon as you are available. There are several options for viewing:

Step 2: Walk

After watching the health talk, it’s time to go out for a walk! Here are a few reminders:

Practice Physical Distancing – Either walk on your own or bring along a friend or loved one, but make sure you’re staying at least 6 feet apart from one another.
Get Out In Nature – If possible, get outside for your walk! Walk around your neighborhood or head to a local park. Nature is good for you and your immune system (see here).
Be Social – During your walk, feel free to call or FaceTime a friend or a family member. Prefer some alone time? Consider listening to music or a podcast while you walk.
Show Your WWAD Pride – If you have any WWAD swag, wear it during your walk and snap some selfies!

Step 3: Share

Tell us about your walk! We would love to hear all about it. There are several options for sharing:
