Registration for Gundersen-Lutheran fitness challenge begins Monday

Registration for Gundersen Lutheran's "Minutes in Motion Activity Challenge" begins Monday.

The six-week physical activity challenge will begin Monday, March 26th, and will end Sunday, May 6th.  Free registration begins Monday--you can register on-line at www.gundluth.org/mim. The first 2,000 people to register will be entered into a drawing for a $200 gift card.

You can register as an individual or as a team.  Aim for 30 minutes of physical activity each day or a total of 1,260 minutes in six weeks.  If you meet the 1,260-minute goal, you'll be eligible to win prizes, including a $500 gift card.

You can pick any activity that fits into your lifestyle, whether it is gardening, walking the dog, weightlifting, yoga or playing Wii games.

At the end of the challenge there will be a celebration in Decorah, with details to be announced later.

Last year, 3,326 people took part in Minutes in Motion throughout the Coulee Region and recorded more than 4.5 million total minutes of physical activity.
