Flight Delayed? Go for a Quick Walk
BWI Marshall Airport introduces two "cardio loops" allowing travelers to get some exercise while waiting for their flights.
Travelers at BWI Marshall Airport will have a chance to burn a few calories while waiting for flights, after the introduction of two new walking paths.
The BWI Cardio Trail includes two kilometer-long loops, including one inside the secure area of the airport. It takes about 20 minutes to complete a loop, officials said.
The paths were introduced Wednesday at the airport as part of the American Heart Association's National Walking Day.
