“Each person had a virtual character that transformed form a brainless zombie to a flying superhero due to the effects of exercise”  Dr. Leoni Kelly, Coach, Wild Rose Medical Centre, “Flab – u- less Team.

The two teams in Olds, the Wild Rose Medical Centre Flab-u-less and the Peaks to Prairies Peppy Steppers challenged each other to see which team would be the most active.

Each team member recorded daily activities which were automatically converted into steps walked.

The purpose of the challenge was to enable each team member to realize the positive impact physical activity has on their health.

“It proved again, exercise is medicine.  It is the number 1 ‘drug’ on the market with scientific evidence for the most health benefits”. Dr. Leoni Kelly, Coach.
