Welcome!

Want to be healthy? Join us for a health challenge! For 4 weeks we will follow 10 simple rules each and every day, accruing one point for each rule followed. Each week we report our progress, and who ever has the most points at the end of the 4 weeks is the winner!

2. Drink eight 6-8oz glasses of water
3. Get 7 hours of sleep
4. Exercise 30 minutes (going to church on Sunday counts as exercise!)
