The Step Into Spring program started from the The Mayor’s Challenge which encouraged people to increase their physical activity levels through various leisure and recreational opportunities, as well as daily lifestyle choices. Focusing on walking, Step into Spring continues to challenge residents of Colchester County to boost their physical activity level. However, this time it is by wearing a pedometer or activity tracking device and recording your daily step counts. The goal is to gradually increase your steps by 10 % each week to help you reach the Health Canada recommended goal of 10,000 steps a day.
