Seniors took to Boathouse row Friday morning as part of the one-mile 2015 Senior Strut.
At Lloyd Hall, the finish line of the walk, Penn Memory Center (PMC) staffers Tigist Hailu and Jessica Nunez distributed stress balls and PMC handouts. Outside, former Philadelphia Eagle Mike Quick addressed participants while a trio of Mummers serenaded the remaining walkers.
“I’m not as young as I used to be, and what I do [to exercise] is what you all did this morning,” said Quick, who also touted the benefits of yoga, saying “there’s nothing better for our aging bodies.”
