Legacy Commons in Palmdale will host its annual fitness walk and continental breakfast on May 25 from 8:30 to 10 a.m.
Sponsored by High Desert Medical Group, the event will begin with a stretching warm up, followed by a walk from Legacy Commons to Poncitlan Square and back. Participants will receive a T-shirt and enjoy a light breakfast on the Legacy Commons patio following the walk. There will also be lawn games including bocce ball and horseshoes. You must register in advance to receive the T-shirt.
“You don’t have to go fast, you just have to go,” said Laura Rice, recreation coordinator at Legacy Commons. “Studies have shown that even a 10-minute walk immediately improves brain chemistry to increase happiness.”
Legacy Commons, 930 E. Avenue Q-9, provides adults 55 years and older with the opportunity to remain “young at heart” with a wide range of drop-in activities in a modern, contemporary environment.
