I've been over weight growing up and I could never find the courage to go and run in public, or even work out in gym class at my school; this program gave me a place to work out with people who do not know me, making me feel more comfortable, until i really was conformable with other people. I'm still a little chubby, but I know there is hope and I will fight until I am happy with my self!

Good Morning; I am having fun staying active. It isn't that hard for me, because Me and my sister both play flag football right now. My dad is our coach, so we spend alot of time on the field. My mom and dad also play softball, so we get to run around when they have practice too. I can't wait to go snowboarding at Mammoth with my pass. We have never been there! James

In order to complete the challenge, I did various activities like jump roping, horseback riding, and Tae-Kwon-Do. Because of this challenge, it seems that I am getting fit. I got to say, I love the governor's challenge!!!
