The Municipal Socialist Group proposes a map of healthy roads throughout the municipality for the practice of sport, which is not limited to the city, but includes numerous roads through the garden, trails and lanes of districts, as advocated by Councilman Juan Vicente Larrosa in a motion in the Plenary.
For the mayor, it is not only to promote and promote the sport for its health benefits, but also to "contribute to disseminate and value the magnificent environment that combines both garden and mountain areas."
Also, remember that "from the City Council is not conducted a campaign of knowledge and promotion of these healthy ways to practice sports, as with other areas that do advertise on the website of the Department of Sports and Health" and " you can not love or respect what is unknown. "
"For our City Council, if we stick to the information that appears on the website of this Department, apparently only have routes to walk and run in the city, while the districts, as always, do not exist. the Municipal Socialist Group, we believe that these roads of districts deserve a value from the local administration, making a good campaign of conditioning and knowledge of these roads as encouragement of the practice of sport and healthy living, "he explains.
Also, Larrosa notes that, "in addition to enjoying the local and privileged environment that our municipality offers, the practice of sport, such as walking daily or running, has important benefits" and remember that the mortality rate is 22% lower in those people who walk around 15 kilometers a week, walking an hour and a half a day reduces the risk of coronary heart disease by 18%, decreases the probability of suffering a heart attack by 35% and reduces the probability of suffering a 34% stroke.
