Through their participation with the Blue Zones Project, staff at Hawaii Water Service participated in walking Moais, walking groups that met weekly for 30 minutes, over the course of a 10-week period. Staff got really engaged in the walking groups and tried to outwalk their other colleagues. There were a few employees that reported some significant improvements to their health by walking with their Moais.
