running over the past 3 months. The American Diabetes Association

those with diabetes.

Exercise Tip:
A quick workout is better than no workout at all.
Everyone has long days and sometimes this means little time for exercise.
After eating lunch, try walking for the remainder of your break.
Make the most of the time you have!
