Some
participants in the Greater
Fall River Fitness Challenge started the 28th Challenge event by
getting their cholesterol, blood sugar and blood pressure checked by staff
from the Southcoast Hospital mobile van to see how much they have improved
from the time they started. Participants then joined FitWorks for a
45-minute work-out.
"Many more people have stuck with the Challenge all the way through
this year," noted Partners staff member Brittany Bertone. The Challenge is sponsored by Partners
along with Greater Fall River
Re-creation, Saint
Anne's Hospital, and Southcoast
Hospitals. The Challenge includes programs provided by All
Generations Fitness, the
Diabetes Association, Inc.,
Fitness
Fusion, FitWorks, General
Fitness. Greater Fall River
Re-creation,
Striking
Beauties, TKO
Fitness, Wiggle
Kids, and the
Fall River YMCA. The Challenge offers low cost opportunities for those who
live, work or attend school in the Greater Fall River Area.
