well through this event, its helped me work harder to achieve my physical goals. I know Im already fit, but one thing is for sure that I just love to keep in shape. This challenege has helped me get rid of stress by keeping my body and mind busy to succeed. I am one of the few students at Thomas Downey High School that is joining the military. Yes, I know I am a girl, but I know I can do what guys can, guys aint the only hardcore ones to join the military haha. But by this challenge starting, it helped me to get even better and my body to be ready for the boot camp that is coming up. I have been doing the Governors "Fit for the Future" Challenege since the day it started and well so far so good, I haven't missed any days of the physical training days so Im good to go. Once I am out of high school this year, I know I will be more ready than usual to begin my future in the military with this challenge by keeping me working on my physical shape everyday and that is what this economy needs right now to have a healthy, strong economy. I thank the people who began the governors challenge because now it shows that people can be more capable on keeping up with their physical figure throughout their lifetime. Thank you, Jessica Thomas Downey High School Student

We just received our Front Runners Challenge for $1000.00 for the school from CVS Pharmacies and the Governor's Council. It was presented to us by Mrs. Sullenberger, whos husband was the pilot that saved allof the lives on board the plane he was flying when he landed (safely) in the Hudson River. The students really enjoyed hearing her version of what the family wnet through and how she dedicated herself in becomig fit. What a great achievment that our student have accomplished so far in being physically fit. This is such a great oppurtunity for any school to take advantage of this program. Again thank you CVS Pharamacy and The Governors Council for this great reward. Thank You, Rob Robinson Physical Education Fame Public Charter School

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

Hello everyone...my husband (81) and I (77) keep active by bike riding 9 miles (me) and 12 miles (him) at least 2 times a week. He goes a further distance than me because he rides faster, covers more distance, comes back to check on me, then heads off again. We both bowl 2 days a week.. 1 day practice, 1 day in a league. I try to meet and walk one day a week with a dear friend and her 3 year old twin boys. My husband and I continue to care for all of our home and yard maintenance. He is active in a Seniors In Retirement organization, is editor of its monthly newsletter requiring his time and expertise on the computer, and is assistant treasurer. After retiring 14 years ago, I continued working parttime two days a week until four months ago - time to enjoy every day with my husband, family and friends.
