Exercise is Medicine – On Campus: Walk with A Doc

Join the Northwest community for a 1-mile walk on the Northwest campus.

  • Hear about physical activity benefits from Dr. John Symonds, family medicine physician at Mosaic.
  • Warm up with Foster Fitness Center staff
  • Walk a mile walk around the campus with Northwest students, employees and community members in support of Exercise is Medicine On Campus vision and goals.

The event is hosted by the Applied Health Science Club, Mosaic Medical Center, Applied Health Science ~ Exercise Testing Students, the Foster Fitness Center and Campus Recreation.

During the walk, exercise testing students will conduct optional V02Max tests, which are considered the best indicator of cardiovascular fitness and aerobic endurance. An Walking Mechanics Seminar will follow the walk at 1 p.m.
