Celebrate Valentine\u2019s Day with a healthy heart!<\/p>\n
麻豆原创 Pegasus Health, the new medical practice where College of Medicine faculty physicians treat patients, is holding its inaugural \u201cWalk with a Doc\u201d on Tuesday, February 14 at noon at the 麻豆原创 main campus. The mile-long walk around campus begins at Millican Hall.<\/p>\n
The walk is designed to encourage participants to fit exercise into their daily lives and to provide lunch-time exercisers with an opportunity to meet doctors from the College of Medicine\u2019s new health care facility. The first 100 participants to register at http:\/\/events.constantcontact.com\/register\/eventllr=4ufsz5iab&oeidk=a07e5k6t9d9fb3b8116 will get an inaugural \u201cWalk with a Doc\u201d T-shirts and a pedometer.<\/p>\n
February is Heart Health Month and Go Red Month for Women, both designed to increase heart health awareness and motivate change for us all. As you look for ways to improve your health, Dr. Bernard Gros, cardiologist at 麻豆原创 Pegasus Health, shares this motto: \u201cMake it yours.\u201d Instead of grudgingly coming up with a health regimen you HAVE to do, or a plan that seems to work for others, pick a plan that fits your personality and interests.<\/p>\n
\u201cAsk yourself, \u2018What kind of exercise would be fun and relaxing to me?\u2019\u201d Dr. Gros said. \u201cHow about walking around the lake? Like to shop? Many shopping malls have walk-the-mall programs that provide a safe, climate-controlled spot to walk. Have a 30-minute lunch break? Eat for 15 minutes and spend the other 15 minutes walking at your workplace.\u201d<\/p>\n
