The goal is to get out and move during the 4 weeks in April….10-30 minutes a day or more. Keep your own activity log during the 4 weeks. Activities can be converted into steps or miles. Your completed log makes you eligible for prizes. Come take the 28 Day Challenge toward change. Be a part of a bigger project…be a part of the Gage County campaign for fun and fitness together. Let’s see how many in Gage County will take the fitness challenge….be a part of this. Fitness and Food tips will be available throughout the campaign.
