Footsteps for Fitness

If wellness is your priority, St. Mary's of Michigan has a program designed just for you.

Take steps in the right direction by joining the St. Mary's of Michigan Footsteps for Fitness program. There are many forms of exercise, but the simplest, least expensive and most accessible is walking.
The new Footsteps for Fitness offers you the flexibility to log your progress by date, time, laps, steps or miles, so you can walk when it is convenient for you.

Because no two people are at the same fitness level, the Footsteps for Fitness program will count fitness days and award prizes based on your cumulative yearly total of fitness days.


Walking Locations:
The Footsteps for Fitness program offers you flexibility and variety. You're encouraged to walk at the indoor Footsteps for Fitness locations, a treadmill, join a gym, walk outside or use area rail trails when weather permits. If you're using the off-site locations, you can download a walking log. Just remember to mail it in to us before the end of December so you can get credit for your fitness days.
