Carderock employees take a break from their desks and enjoy the sunny November weather ☀️ along the Billy Goat Trail in the C&O Canal National Historic Park. Walking has powerful health benefits—many studies show that just five minutes of walking in nature improves mood, self-esteem, and reduces stress. Sponsored by Carderock’s Civilian Morale, Welfare and Recreation (CMWR) team, this hike is one of the ways they strive to offer employees a variety of morale-boosting events. Who else is getting outside today? #Carderock #CMWR #outside #healthyhabits #mentalhealthwalk #navyMWR #worklifebalance
