As
part of the Greater
Fall
River Fitness Challenge Fitness
Fusion instructor Mindy Davis leads a walking and jogging group every
Monday and Wednesday at 4:30 p.m. at Kennedy Park. The group, which runs
for half an hour starts with a five-minute warm-up walk. Then, for the
next twenty minutes, the group alternates between 90 second jogging and
two-minute running sessions. They then finish with a five-minute cool-down
walk. "It's a great way to get in shape for the upcoming Giunta
5K race that will be held this year on April 7th," notes Davis.
The group is open to any Fitness Challenge participant just by showing up.
