The 2013 My Heart Challenge, sponsored by the Intermountain Heart Institute at Intermountain Medical Center in Murray, provides an opportunity for 15 school principals from throughout Salt Lake County to improve their heart health by making positive lifestyle choices, including diet and exercise.
The goal of the 2013 My Heart Challenge is to help these principals improve their heart health while serving as motivational role models to the teachers and students at their schools, and others in their community.
Follow their progress each week by visiting the 2013 My Heart Challenge website [hyperlink: www.myheartchallenge.org ] , and get access to exercise and nutrition tips from experts at the Intermountain Heart Institute at Intermountain Medical Center.
Contestant updates will include tips on how they have made changes to be more heart healthy, as well as videos of activities implemented in their schools to encourage the kids and teachers to be more heart healthy.
