WHY ORGANIZE VIRTUALLY?

虚拟步行和跑步have gained momentum for obvious reasons, and now there are several studies showcasing the potential benefits.For example, astudy in the journal Games for Healthanalyzed the motivational benefits of in-person walking partners, virtual partners and no partners at all.

Developing a virtual exercise routine with your family and friends can be fun, motivating and a great way to spend quality time together as you encourage each other to stay healthy and fit. The good news is today’s technology makes it easier than ever to connect before, during and after your walking workouts.
