WEEK TWO of The Six Week Health Challenge #sixweekhealth

Hello Steemians. First of all WOW! You guys have got behind this challenge in a big way. I want to say a big thank you to everyone who joined in with week one and to those who supported it with comments, votes and encouragement. With your help we can spread health, fitness and happiness to thousands of people.

Here's how the Six Week Health Challenge works. Every single week I post a new challenge that will help you improve your health. Then it's up to you guys to get involved in the challenge by following the rules in this post! At the end of the week, the top four entries will be short listed for the final vote. Steem will then vote for your favourite entry and that Steemian will win sixty Steem! That means that every single week you could win sixty Steem, while getting healthier.

For a better idea of how the challenge works you can find details of the first week's challenge HERE. As a result of Week One, we now have a big database of healthy recipes that you can try - CLICK HERE FOR HEALTHY FOOD!. I still need your help for Week One - go and vote for your favourite recipe and they will be winning sixty Steem courtesy of myself and @sweetsssj.

Week Two Challenge

Go for a long walk (or run)

Last week, I asked you guys to try a new healthy recipe. This week, I want you to get out for a long walk (or run) at least once. You can get out and go anywhere. For Week Two's challenge you'll need to submit a post with photos and descriptions of of your walk! In the posts we are looking for either (or both) of the following:

1. The most interesting walks

We want to see pictures of different parts of your city or local countryside. Perhaps you find wildlife or can show us your favourite places to eat and hang out. Include as much diversity as you can and show off how interesting your walk (or run) was. Show us variety and teach us about the places you went on your journey.

2. The best photography from a walk

We want to see photos of stunning views, amazing architecture or arty shots of things you found and saw. These can be of sweeping landscapes, close up shots or anything in between - show us the amazing sights you saw with some beautiful photography.

Don't worry if you aren't the best photographer or don't have a great camera. Showing us the interesting walk or run that you went on is just as valued as beautiful photography. The goal is to get more people active and exercising and to inspire other Steemians to go and explore where they live while getting fit!

Anyone can go for a walk or a run. It's free and you can walk anywhere you like. It could be out in nature, around your local neighbourhood/city or going to see some beautiful buildings or sites. Walking has many benefits which include:

• Fitness
• Energy
• Heart health
• Lung health
• Mental energy
• Improves mood
• Clears the mind
• Improves muscle strength

So there's no reason not to join in. Get entering and be in with your chance to win sixty Steem.
