The BC Healthy Living Alliance Walk (Tuesday Apr 28th, 2009)

Via the always lovely Monica Hamburg I learned that on Tuesday April 28th, the BC Healthy Living Alliance is hosting an invite only walk to highlight issues of healthy living. I was invited along with a number of fellow bloggers but unfortunately can’t attend.

The walk is next Tuesday, April 28th, we will meet at Waves Coffee on the corner of West Broadway and Spruce Street at 6:30pm. Though the walk won’t be too intensive, there will be some mildly-steep hills so wear comfortable shoes.

So you may ask yourself – what is the BCHLA?

Formed in February 2003, the BC Healthy Living Alliance (BCHLA) is a group of organizations that have come together with a mission to improve the health of British Columbians through leadership that enhances collaborative action to promote physical activity, healthy eating and living smoke-free.

I am, unfortunately, unable to attend but I have inquired if the event is open to the public, so if you are interested, please contact Rita at rkoutfodimos@bchealthyliving.ca and she will let you know about the capacity of the event. I am sure it will be a good event. It is important for people to understand what factors can affect our quality of life and how we can change behavioral patterns that may be unhealthy. You may want to check the Facebook event page or follow @BCHealthyLiving on Twitter.

I strongly believe in the work of the BC Healthy Living Alliance and look forward to hearing how the walk goes.
