Get “5K Fit”
with DCP
Have you always wanted to try a 5K but never got around to it? Are you
tired of those holiday pounds sticking around? Do you just need some
motivation to get healthy? Darke County Parks is hosting a fitness
program called 5K Fit every Thursday @ 5:30pm from March 30th through
May 8th. Join them throughout the spring to get healthy. They’ll have
three different programs for you to choose from (walking,
walking/jogging, and running) to suit your fitness needs and help you
work towards a healthier lifestyle.
With everyone setting their own goals and moving at their own pace,
feel free to join them at any point during the program. For every time
you attend, you’ll be entered into a drawing to win a free registration
for the Raptor Run/Walk” on Saturday August 5th at Shawnee Prairie
Preserve. Please dress for the weather and bring a timing device and
water bottle. For questions or weather updates, call the Nature Center
at 548-0165.
