The Healthy People Community

You’ll have to excuse me for the title of this blog. I’m lacking creativity at the moment. So let me explain what I mean by a so called healthy people community. Often times you see people, especially in Victoria, exercising in groups or pairs, whether it be biking, running, walking, going to the gym, etc. These people all have one thing in common and that is that they are trying to improve or maintain their health.

These people not only share these activities, but also eating habits and general lifestyles tend to be quite similar. It almost seems to me that there really is a community of these people. They share the same respect for each other even if they do not know one another and always seem to understand each other. Engaging the community could also become easy through word of mouth from say one runner to the next. Not only could this so called community help with engagement, but they generally have adopted more environmentally friendly lifetstyles. These are usually the type of people you would find biking, running or even walking to work.
