Mind HK’s annual large-scale challenge “Move It for Mental Health 2024”, sponsored by lululemon, is making a comeback! This year we want to encourage you to breathe some fresh air and complete a total of 50km in nature during the month of March.
Exercise helps to boost our mental health and emotional wellbeing, and being in nature is proven to help support mental health. It is also a great way to discover the hidden gems in this vibrant city. We encourage people of all ages to step outdoors this year and feel the positive change it brings to mind and body. Here is the opportunity to take up a new challenge!
You can achieve the goal of 50km in nature by walking, running, or hiking along nature trails, coastal walks, or in country parks. You could do this in one go, via several short hikes, or through 2-3 long hikes. You could even bike or swim, or find another creative way of covering 50km. It is up to you!
Move It for Mental Health 2024 is open for registration from 18 January 2024. Let’s get moving and get outdoors this March!
