Indoor Walking Options

As inclement weather approaches, here are two Grinnell walking exercise options to consider.

The City of Grinnell is offering free use of the indoor track at the Grinnell Athletic and Recreation Center (GARC), 1500 Penrose Street, to Grinnell citizens who are 60 years of age and older. When you visit, they will collect contact information and provide a scan card, allowing holders to use the facility.

For residents of The Mayflower Community, an extensive array of underground walkways plus common hallways and the skywalk are available for your exercise use. In addition, the Mayflower “Walking Warriors” meet twice a week, Tuesdays and Thursdays at 8:15am, in the second-floor Buckley building lounge for a small-group campus walk.

See the Mayflower walking map pictured for routes and distances.
