Walk This May!

May is National Walking Month. Promoted by Living Streets, the event encourages people to enjoy walking as a form of exercise, exploration and relaxation, but also as a way of getting from A to B. 

Make a pledge to walk short journeys this month at the Living Streets website. There are many great places to walk around campus--the Rea Valley Route, Harborne Walkway and Bourn Brook Walkway spring to mind. The community of Edgbaston has four walking routes to houses with blue plaques that commemorate eminent people who once lived in the area. Lots of interesting stories to discover, and a perfect way to while away a spring afternoon.
