Statistics show that over 33 percent of Alabamians are overweight. It’s one of the many reasons why the city of Montgomery is looking to help change that by bringing a national event to the capitol city.
The city held the first Walk at lunch event at Riverwalk Stadium. Officials say it’s important for people to take part in the event. Statistics show Alabama is the fifth most obese state in the country. Doctors, nurses, and even person trainers were on hand to help drive the point home about living a healthy lifestyle. Officials say the more you walk, the better chance you have of living a longer, healthier life.
