Join us for Walk with a Doc – a free community walking program! Each event is led by local Children’s National healthcare providers and is open to people of all ages and abilities. We warmly welcome families and children of any age, including participants of the Family Lifestyle Program. The program allows attendees to safely take a walk, learn about current health topics, and meet new people. We hope to see you at our next walk!  Please bring your water bottle and your smile!

Inclement Weather Policy – please note, we will cancel walks for active severe weather events (ex. thunderstorms, tornadoes, snowstorms).

Take a Step Toward Better Health at Walk with a Doc

WALK

Walking is one of the best things you can do for both your physical and mental health! At each event, you’ll have the opportunity to walk at a pace and distance that you’re comfortable with.

LEARN ABOUT HEALTH

Each event starts with a brief discussion on a health topic from a local physician, healthcare provider, or medical student. You’ll also have the opportunity to chat with the leader and ask questions during the walk.

MEET NEW PEOPLE

Research shows that socializing with others is extremely important for our health. Bring a friend or meet a new friend at the walks.
