• Walk 15. State employees are encouraged to use a daily 15-minute break for walking or other exercise.
• Free Online Tracking of Health Routines. State employees are encouraged to participate in the America on the Move™ walking program so they can record individual daily walk and exercise routines at www.americaonthemove.org.
