Healthy Lifestyles 5k Run/Walk!!!!

  


     Come and join us on Saturday, August 14, 2010 @ 8:00am on the Utah County Courthouse Lawn :) Walkers, Joggers, Runners, etc.. in your intermediate family are welcome, especially YOU!!  Hurry and register at this website...the first 100 get a free T-shirt!  Why should you do the 5k?  Why not!!!!
     We hear it all the time… “You need to be more physically active. It’s good for your health”. Well, it’s true, but after a long day of work and you finally get home to spend time with family and friends, sometimes the last thing you want to do is leave them to go exercise. Well…what if you take them with you? How great would it be if you said “C’mon everyone, let’s go to the park and play frisbee”? Be active with your family and friends. Teach your kids that it feels good to move. Life does get in the way, but it doesn't have to. Make getting more physical activity and physical fitness a family project.
     This 5K was meant to bring families and friends together. It’s to remind us that physical activity can be fun. Be creative for this event and make it a group effort. Come dressed in matching t‐shirts if you’d like or sing a song during the route. The Healthy Lifestyles program encourages each Utah County employee to get up and get moving. If you have always wanted to get in better shape this is a great time to start. If you are already living an active lifestyle this is a good opportunity to get your family involved too.
     This is a fun and stress free event to celebrate the good feeling of being physically active. All fitness levels are welcome whether you are a couch potato or a marathon runner. Come and enjoy!!!
