   Sign ups have begun for the 2012 Live Healthy Iowa — 100 Day Wellness Challenge that begins on January 23.

   Live Healthy Iowa is a team-based initiative launched by the Iowa Sports Foundation in 2001 to promote better health through positive lifestyle changes. During the annual Live Healthy Iowa — 100 Day Wellness Challenge, teams of two to 10 Iowans track their weight and activity minutes and motivate each other to lose weight and improve their overall fitness. Individuals may form teams with friends, family members or colleagues.
   

   All teams will receive access to online tracking tools, training and nutrition software, a one-year magazine subscription to a national lifestyle magazine and a Live Healthy training t-shirt.

   To sign up your team for Live Healthy Iowa go to www.livehealthyiowa.org. If you don't have a team, individual sign ups will be taken at the Grundy County Wellness Fair this Saturday (see below).
