Leeds Dock invites everyone to take part in a daily mile route for 20-minutes of easy exercise

The Daily Mile initiative provides an excellent opportunity for the local community to incorporate self-paced, outdoor physical activity (e.g. walking, jogging, running) into their lives, with the objective to positively impact personal health, attitude and well-being.

Starting outside Department Leeds Dock on The Boulevard, the 20-minute walk weaves around Leeds Dock, offering wonderfully scenic views of the River Aire. A mile is approximately 2,000 steps.

At a glance, a Daily Mile can help reduce the risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes and stress, manage weight by burning calories, release feel-good hormones, manage stress, increase relaxation and improve sleep, increase energy levels and boost concentration.

It’s also a brilliant way to connect with others that are taking part in the Daily Mile too.
