Success Stories
Posted On 2008-12-02
I am actually training for mini Triathlons around the state of California. I saw this add for the Governers Challenge and knew it would only help and have another acheivement under my belt along with my total weight loss of 82 pounds, going from 267 to 185 pounds. I currently run, hike, bike and swim on a constant basis at least 4 times a week while working part time at Costco, and being a full time student at Cal State Bakersfield. Being active and maintaining a good health and shape is important and hopefully this challenge motivated others to do the same as well. I look forward to helping others down the road as I am going into California Highway Patrol in less then a year and a half. Thanks for the fun challenge, I would continue it as often as possible in all types of schools. James Helble

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!!!

Alls it took was dedication because my school needs the money. I just continued with my normal everyday exercising so that I can do my part in helping my school.
