The Heart Journeys, an invitation to take care of yourself, with hikes and prevention in Bagnols-sur-Cèze

Dimanche 28 avril, le club Cœur et santé de Bagnols-sur-Cèze organise ses Parcours du cœur. Trois randonnées, des ateliers de prévention et des stands d’information sont au programme.

The Parcours du coeur returns on Sunday April 28 to Bagnols-sur-Cèze. As with each edition, the event includes hikes, prevention workshops and meetings with health professionals.

"It’is open to everyone, athletes, non-athletes, to those who have never walked…< /em>" underlines Jean-Louis Laffitte, volunteer and hiking guide at the Heart and Health club. Three hikes are on the program for the morning, each with its own distance: short (5 km), medium (9.5 km), long (13 km). Routes marked and secured by volunteers so that everyone can use the paths independently.

Two chaperones if necessary

"If people do not feel like hiking without a guide, there will be two first aid guides for the medium hike and the long hike" specifies Jean-Louis Laffitte. With a departure at 9:15 a.m. and another at 9:30 a.m. This year, the medium and long courses are new, departing from the Cèze & nbsp;Christian-Ville, where the Parcours du coeur HQ will be located, as in each edition.

"By doing the medium and long routes, you will have a magnificent view of Bagnols. We will cross the woods, a pretty valley with lots of springs, pass in front of the chapel of Saint-Martin…" promises the volunteer who knows the paths of the Rhone Gard well. "Nature in the colors of spring !" he rejoices.

Using a defibrillator, taking blood pressure…

Throughout the morning, at the Cèze bowling alley, several stands will be set up, with the presence of caregivers from the Bagnols hospital and the cardiologist from the Heart and Health club. Dietetic advice, blood pressure measurement and blood sugar measurement will be offered by the hospital's therapeutic education team, with the presence of a cardiologist, a pharmacist, from a dietician… On Sunday morning, you can also train in cardiac massage and the use of a defibrillator or find out about the possibilities of (re)playing sport at the Sport santé house.

Only small downside for this Sunday placed under the sign of the heart: "the weather ! But Sunday morning, if it rains it will only be a little drizzle" assures Jean-Louis Laffitte.

Journey of the heart: Sunday April 28, at the Cèze Christian-Ville bowling alley, avenue Maréchal-de-Lattre-de-Tassigny. Meet for accompanied hikes at 8:45 a.m., otherwise self-guided hikes from 8:45 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Free registration on site. A snack will be offered to all participants before leaving for the hike. Information: Tel. 06 89 93 53 75 or jean.laffitte@yahoo.com
