As Active SWV prepares for the upcoming fall Kids Run Club season, we have been working to provide free opportunities for kids to be active both virtually and in person.

Active SWV is excited to introduce our July participants of the month, Crisandra and Randy Tephabock!

Active Southern West Virginia seeks to improve the health of southern West Virginians by increasing opportunities for physical activity.

Whether your work life has changed or not, most all of us are under additional stress these days. Often, stepping away for a bit is the best way to refocus.

This spring, Active SWV’s Regional Fun Run Event is going virtual! The event has a youth 1-mile dash option as well as a community 5k walk/run, and is open to and adult or child in the community who would like to participate.

Hiking to connect with nature can be a great way to stay active and physically distance yourself during these trying times.

We know physical activity is good for us. We’ve seen the studies showing physical activity is a natural mood booster. We know it can prevent heart disease, diabetes, and other chronic illness. So, why aren’t we more physically active?

Active Southern West Virginia is committed to the health and well-being of southern West Virginians. At this time we are limited in in-person meeting locations for group physical activity.
