Join Nashville on the Move!

Held the first Friday of every month, Nashville on the Move is a free lunchtime walking event designed to help employees become more active during their workday. Nashville on the Move also encourages companies to take steps to improve their employees' health by taking the following specific measures:

• Activity breaks throughout the day 
• Serving healthy meeting food and snacks 
• Making water the primary workplace drink   

Nashville on the Move is organized by the YMCA of Middle Tennessee's Pioneering Healthier Communities initiative in partnership with Metro Public Health and area business partners; all working towards the same goal of offering work-site wellness strategies to help encourage more employees to be active during the work day.

How to Participate
Just come out and walk any portion of a Nashville on the Move walking route. Form an office walking group to join you and walk together, or just plan to meet new walking buddies on the route from other companies.


Indoor Walking Options
With respect to unpredictable changing weather patterns in the late fall and winter months, we encourage participants to find indoor options when bad weather strikes. 

Many companies in the downtown Nashville area have already selected or provided their indoor options to their employees and we encourage you or your company to also take that next step. 

If you choose to walk outdoors during the winter months, please remember to bring a water bottle with you.  We will not have water stations set up during colder weather months, but encourage you to bring a bottle of water if you feel that would help support your walk.  We still encourage you to use the outdoor walking routes to join others helping get Nashville on the move.

Everyone is welcome


Nashville on the Move is for all fitness levels-start where you are by doing something more today than you were yesterday. Walk just one block, walk five blocks, or walk the entire course. Everyone can do something! Make plans to join us and bring your co-workers.
