2026 Healthiest State Annual Walk presented by Delta Dental

The 2026 Healthiest State Annual Walk, presented by Delta Dental of Iowa, will be held on October 7. The Annual Walk is an opportunity to join thousands of other Iowans statewide in walking for 30 minutes to raise awareness of the importance of physical and mental well-being in Iowa. Workplaces, schools, organizations and cities are all encouraged to register a walk for free! Moving Iowa forward starts with healthy habits. Whether it's taking a walk, making healthier food choices, connecting with others, or prioritizing mental wellness, every positive choice contributes to a stronger and healthier Iowa. The Healthiest State Walk is a reminder that meaningful change often begins with small steps and that together, those steps can move Iowa forward towards a healthier future! Let us know where you’ll be walking and spread the word in your community with #MoveIowaForward on social media!
