Join Us in the #WalkAMileADayInMay Challenge to Promote Bone Health

May is osteoporosis awareness month and Nomad Fit Lab and the Bone Health & Osteoporosis Foundation (BHOF) are looking to rally our communities and raise awareness about bone health. Join us in the #WalkAMileADayInMay challenge to celebrate and promote bone health.

The month of May is a time to take steps toward stronger bones, healthier communities, and increased understanding of a disease that often goes unnoticed until someone breaks a bone. Osteoporosis and low bone mass affect an estimated 54 million Americans and leads to more than two million broken bones every year.

We are encouraging the community to take steps—literally—to help raise awareness about osteoporosis, support those affected, and promote better bone health for all. 

“Walking is one of the best low-impact weight-bearing exercises to help maintain bone density, improve balance, and support overall physical and mental health, which is especially important as we age,” says the BHOF. “Research also shows that 1 in 2 women and up to 1 in 4 men over the age of 50 will break a bone due to osteoporosis. But walking just a little each day can help lower the risk.”

Through the #WalkAMileADayInMay initiative, we invite you to walk, stairstep, run, or hike your way through the month to help spread the word and build a stronger community. Whether you’re walking in honor of a loved one, for your own health, or simply to be part of something meaningful, your steps matter.

Help us spread the word by using the following hashtags on social media:

It’s more important than ever that we come together to support each other, rally our communities and raise awareness about bone health during Osteoporosis Awareness and Prevention Month in May!
