To help you be mindful of your health and well-being, we want to invite you to stay active.

Walk, jog, run, hike, bike, or swim your way through this holiday season. You can do these activities outdoors, in the gym, or in the safety and warmth of your own homes. Choose your own goal distance and commit to 37 days of accountability, encouragement, and fun by logging in your miles daily or weekly.

Give yourself the gift of better health!
