Learning about the health benefits of walking is just one of the perks of the Texas Tech Health Sciences Center's "Walk with a Doc" challenge.

The public was invited to Westgate Mall Saturday and walked three miles together, all while getting some health tips from a local physician.

"Walk with a Doc" was started to encourage a healthier lifestyle.

Walkers meet once a month to enjoy each others company and some fun exercise.

The next "Walk with a Doc" event is April 19th.

A cardiologist will be at the next walk to talk about cardiovascular health.

For more information call 354-5437.
