Registration is underway for a Spring Walking
Challenge to be held April 10th through June 4th . The challenge is a
continuation of Livingston County Health Center’s “Walk Chillicothe” Project.
Those interested can sign up now through Monday, April 10th
to participate in the challenge. Late
registrations will be accepted, but the Health Center would like to get as many
on the books by starting day as possible. Register by visiting www.livcohealthcenter.com or call
646-5506.
The requirements are simple: pledge to walk 30 minutes a
day, 5 days a week for 8 weeks. Record
walking on an exercise log and turn it in after the 8 weeks to be eligible for
the prize drawing. Logs are available at our office. Even if you fall short of your goal, all
entries submitted will be put in the drawing.
The walking challenge is an attempt to get people motivated
to start a walking habit that will be established after the eight week
period.
Local worksites are also being targeted in the challenge to
encourage employers to promote a healthy lifestyle to their workers.
