The Saipan Walking Association would be hosting the Heart of the Marianas Fitness Walk this morning along the Saipan Beach Pathway.
Registration for the event starts at 6am at the Civic Center Basketball Court in Susupe. From there, participating walkers would go north to the 10-kilometer turning point located at the picnic pavilion across the CIC Centre in Garapan.
A shorter 5-kilometer course will also be available for children and for those desiring a more leisurely walk with the turnaround at the Japanese Tank Memorial across Quartermaster Road.
In addition, SAIWAI would be giving away 50 towels for first 50 walkers and registration for the walk is free. Drinks and fruits will be available to participants until supplies last.
The Heart of the Marianas Fitness Walk event is held in part to celebrate the “Heart of the Marianas Family Fitness Fair.”
Like all SAIWAI activities, the IVV will be sanctioning the Heart of the Marianas Fitness Walk. IVV members will receive credit for joining the event.
The IVV has member walking clubs in the U.S., Canada, Brazil, Japan, South Korea, Turkey, Nepal, Australia, New Zealand, the CNMI, and 29 other European countries, including Germany.

SAIWAI was incorporated as a non-profit corporation on July 27, 2001 and was established to promote public health through non-competitive walking.
