Get Fit Fennimore 2012!
Get Fit Fennimore 2012 is off to a great start. Seventy-four individuals and three businesses signed up at the recent Health and Wellness Fair to take part in this year's weight loss competition.
The 2012 Get Fit Weight Loss Competition has a new focus this year. Committee members felt it was important to offer continued support throughout the 10 weeks of competition to assist participants during their journey to a more healthy life style and long-term weight loss.
Each Wednesday weekly healthcare education and fitness sessions are held at the Fennimore Memorial building and run through March 21. Chris Swan, Registered Dietitian, teaches weight control sessions from 5:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. Group exercise sessions are led by personal fitness trainers from Fennimore Fitness from 6:30 to 7 p.m. There has been about 50% participation each week in the Wednesday evening sessions.
Weigh-in takes place every Wednesday at the Fennimore Memorial building between 5 to 7 p.m. or anytime at Fennimore Fitness or by special arrangement with Get Fit chairperson Brent Sheckler 608-822-4066. The deadline to qualify for weekly prizes is 8 p.m. each Wednesday (see the rules and regulations). The final Get Fit Fennimore weigh in will be held Wednesday, March 28 at which time Fennimore's Biggest Loser will be crowned.
We invite you to follow along by visiting this website for weekly prize winner and weekly prize information.
