\nWalking – just walking! – is in itself great exercise, said Peter Pellerito, fitness specialist at the Center for Healthy Living.<\/p>\n

“You don’t have to go for an extremely long walk,” he said. “With 10 minute brisk walks, where a person would accumulate about 150 minutes of walking per week, a person could achieve significant health benefits.”<\/p>\n

So in conjunction with the UNMC Winter Decathlon<\/a>, Pellerito has compiled a listing of UNMC’s various indoor walking “trails” and put them all on an easy-to-read color-coded map<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Everyone knows that there are various hallways and tunnels between buildings on campus. But who knows how many they are, where they are and where they go?<\/p>\n

Now we do.<\/p>\n

Well, mostly.<\/p>\n

“The other day I ran into another one that I was unaware of when I made the map,” Pellerito said.<\/p>\n
