GADSDEN Co., Fla. (WTXL) - It's not too late to make a new year's resolution and with the kick-off of "Get Going Gadsden" 2015 less than a week away now is the time to start getting fit.
The competition consists of teams participating in a weigh-in and then track weight loss through weekly weigh-ins over a 6 month time period. The competition period runs from January 12 until July 13.
VIDEO: Rachel Guy, a Health Educator for the Florida Department of Health and Michelle Maxwell, the WIC Coordinator for the Florida Department of Health joined us on WTXL's Sunrise to talk about the competition.
During that time period, teams are encouraged to host and attend community health education courses. The goal of the initiative is to raise obesity awareness throughout the community.
