The event traditionally steps off at 2:41 because statistics show that for every hour you exercise, you gain extra two hours on your lifespan. This is a national event that thousands across the national participate in to support the fight against heart disease by making a pledge to start walking and become more heart healthy.</p> <p> This is the second year the ODU has lead the charge to encourage the campus and local community to make the pledge and start walking on campus.</p> <p> START Heart Walk at ODU is sponsored by <a href="http://ww2.studentaffairs.odu.edu/recsports/index.shtml" title="">Recreation and Wellness</a>, <a href="http://education.odu.edu/esper/" title="">the Dept of Human Movement Science</a>,<a href="http://www.odu.edu/ao/ia/directory/univadv.shtml" title=""> the Office of Community Engagement</a>, <a href="http://www.campusdish.com/en-US/CSMA/OLDDOMINION">Monarch Dining</a>, and <a href="http://ww2.studentaffairs.odu.edu/osal/community/index.shtml" title="">the Center for Service & Civic Engagement</a>.
