GET OUT AND LIVE 2010

Get Out And Live 2010 is an opportunity for every Canadian to set a health and/or fitness goal that they want to achieve by Feb. 12 2010, when Vancouver, Whistler and the country of Canada will host the Winter Olympic Games!!
Every Canadian should have the opportunity to feel and be a part of the Olympic movement and GOAL 2010 is their chance.
We will have our Olympians and Paralympians setting their goals on winning GOLD for Canada. Every Canadian should try to set their own goal by becoming more active in the next three years so that we can show the world how much we as Canadians value sport , health, community and sustainability. If we keep on doing what we've done in the past our levels of Obesity and Type 2 Diabetes among adults and kids will be atrocious.
I am encouraging everyone to GET OUT AND LIVE! Try something new with your family or friends, like going for a hike, crosscounrty skiing, do family recycling, walk to school together or join some activities at a community center, support a cause, raise funds and awareness while keeping yourself healthy. The list is endless and it only takes one step at a time to get there.
This is the start of something big and you should be part of it!!
