Wellness screening: The good news is....

New insurance requirement got you feeling down?  Read Doug Gann's Story

I've worked with Doug Gann for many years.  I've heard about his heroics as a high school athlete and UAB's first-ever quarterback (he also played baseball for the Blazers).  I have seen him complete in 5K's 10K's and half-marathons.  He is a beast of a CrossFit athlete and is even certified as a CrossFit coach.  And now, I'm giving everyone in our school system a chance to compete weekly to take him off the top of our leaderboard.  Check out the Individual Leaderboard tab above.  This particular data entry included three weeks of Patriot Points so don't be shocked by the numbers-they are legit.  If you are one of those folks who are no where near this level of devotion/time commitment, don't be discouraged by the big numbers next to the names of the people listed.  Instead, think about your commitment to wellness.  What is the level of commitment you can give to be better than you were the week before?  Recently, we all took part in a health screening required by our insurance.  I know we would rather not have this new requirement but maybe, just maybe we can turn this into something positive.  A few years back, Doug Gann had some stats that he probably wasn't very proud of-high cholesterol.  He could have blamed it on heredity or a bad meal the night before the screening.  Instead of doing that, he made lifestyle changes to change his fate.  And.. look.. where... he.. is now....

Win the week vs. Doug or win the week vs your stats.  Whatever the case, win the week.

Get moving..

HHS will host the virtual PPC Trophy.  Our current hardware is at Tim Lunceford's house in need of some repair.

Keep Moving.
