Walk the Rock – Final Results

by Kathleen Minihan · Jun 29, 2016

Congratulations! We are over the moon with the success of this competition and the support from all of our island steppers! The Walk the Rock challenge started off as a tool to help inspire individuals to increase their physical activity and became a wonderful tool not only for teammates but also for members of opposing teams to come together to find motivation and support.

“Can’t tell you how excited I am to complete this challenge. I don’t know who _________is, but you  need to thank her for me. If it wasn’t for her, I wouldn’t have run/walked as hard as I did.”

“We had fun and it opened our eyes about movement and teamwork!”

“It bonded our team in a way we never would have bonded without the challenge, and it was so much fun! I can’t wait for the next one!”

There are only 11 days left in the challenge. If you’re losing a little steam please don’t give up and just keep walking because every step counts. Looking to mix things up a bit? Check out the following activities for a few fun different ways to get your steps in.

A few ways to step it up!

  • Pick your own strawberries at Bartlett’s Farm. Walk the fields and be rewarded with the most delicious and nutritious treat. Daily from 8:00am to 5:00pm
  • Take a Nantucket Walkabout hike. Learn about Nantucket’s natural history while accumulating your steps. There are a variety of hikes to choose from and the average number of steps is listed in the description of each tour.
  • Join Brant Point Runners at the corner of Easton St. & North Beach Street every Tuesday at 5:15pm for a timed 5K as either a walk or a run. This is a great way to continue to meet other partners/friends in health and to keep moving after this challenge ends.

Walk The Rock – Week 2 Results

by Kathleen Minihan · May 31, 2016

When we decided to host the Walk the Rock Walking Challenge I was a little apprehensive to structure the event as a competition. I was fearful that the contest would overshadow the original intention, which is simply to promote health. By framing this event as a competition there was the potential to create an environment that could pressure and cause animosity amongst team members rather than provide support…

Finding health in movement

by Kathleen Minihan · May 21, 2016

Sitting is the new smoking…. We have gone from a lifestyle of constant movement to one of inactivity. Not too long ago we lived in a society where we grew our own food, hand scrubbed our own clothes, pumped and hauled our own water, and walked anywhere we needed to go. Flash forward 100 years and we spend most of our day sitting in a car, on the sofa, or at a desk and push buttons to complete the tasks that our ancestors had to exert a significant amount of energy to complete.
