Holiday Exercise Challenge

by Susie Walden

 

Turkey coma got you down? Have you been sampling all the tasty holiday treats you’ve been making? No worries! There’s still time to join the holiday exercise challenge and get a move on. Why wait for New Years to work on your health when you can start today? You can create your own goal, or go with one of the preset goals to complete a marathon or half-marathon of walking miles in each month. At the end of the challenge you’ll receive a survey asking if you completed your goal.

If you say yes, you’ll be entered into a drawing for free Williamson County Parks & Recreation Monthly Passes! That should help you kick the New Year off right!

The challenge ends on December 31, 2021:

While you’re walking, jogging, or doing any other exercise tasks, take an audiobook with you!
