Get Fit on Route 66

 

"Get Fit on Route 66" is an award-winning, fun physical activity adventure designed to inspire you to be more active as you trace the famous route of this virtual highway. Whatever physical activity you enjoy doing—tennis, jogging, swimming, biking, softball, or something else, this is a fun way to motivate yourself into keeping fit. In 2006, " Get Fit on Route 66" was recognized by the International Council on Active Aging (ICAA) with an innovation in physical activity programming award.
 
How does it work? Your goal is to "travel" from Chicago to Santa Monica (2,448 miles) by recording your physical activity minutes. The program converts the minutes to miles with one minute equaling one mile. You set the pace, whether it’s ten miles a day or sixty. You’ll find it easy to use and the healthy recipes section takes the guesswork out of preparing a nutritious meal. Plus motivational emails will keep you moving.
 
For those who have actually traveled Route 66, the program will bring back fond memories.
 
For those who haven’t, you’ll discover fun facts about Route 66 along the way.
 
 
                                                                                                                                                                 Who Can Participate?
Everyone can participate—occasional, regular and advanced participation levels make it challenging and fun to complete the route, whether you’re already active or just beginning to get more active.
 
 
                                                                                                                                                                 How Do I Get Started?
Visit Get Fit on Route 66 and register for this free program from AARP. We celebrate the attitude that age is just a number and life is what you make it.
