The Google Walk

Among Google's comittment to health and philanthropy, the search giant has launched a personal fitness campaign that allows qualifying participants to vote on which health-oriented charities will share a $100,000 donation from Google. The following excerpt from Marissa Mayer, Google's Vice President of Search Products & User Experience, was taken from Google's Blog:

"Unrelated to Google Health but in the interest of helping people get healthier, we launched our Go for Good campaign with the Cleveland Clinic. The Walk for Good iGoogle gadget encourages you to be good to yourself by walking regularly and tracking your progress. If you finish week 15 of the program by October 25th this year and have completed at least half of the total walking program by then, you can vote to tell us which of the health charities from our list should receive part of a $100,000 donation."
