Walk To Work Day! Friday April 12th

Philadelphia is participating in walk to work day! Get your legs moving, feel healthy and perhaps score some free stuff too.

We understand it may not be plausible to walk your entire commute. If you’re a road warrior commuting from the city to NJ and Philadelphia suburbs or vice versa – 95 and 76 aren’t exactly stroll-friendly. Don’t despair – you just need to walk 15 minutes of your commute to receive 25% off of 5K Run for Clean Air registration, 10% off loaves of bread at Metropolitan bakery, Buy 1 dozen bagels & get 1/2 dozen free at South Street Bagels, along with other great deals.

You’ll just need your “I walked to work today!” sticker as proof of participation. Take the walk to work pledge via our friends at the Clean Air Council and get your walk on tomorrow.

Bonus: Studies show that walking can improve your concentration and focus at work.
