Walking programs for the winter

Winter cold and snow can make it challenging to keep up your exercise. But exercise is important for weight control, heart health and feeling good. Walk indoors with a group through a walking program or at a local mall. Borrow a pedometer from the public library to track your steps and aim for 10,000 each day.
