Fitness for Heroes is a 4 week fitness challenge for everyone from the novice exerciser to the seasoned athlete. The challenge begins on March 11th and it’s an excellent way to get in shape AND help out a local nonprofit organization! We are going to use this 4 week challenge to prepare our bodies for a 5K run.

In this competition, you will be asked to work out as many hours as you can in that 4 week period. The workouts are completely up to you and will look different for everyone. The best part? If you’re struggling with what to do, we’re going to provide you with a goal for every week, leading up to April 7th. All proceeds will go toward empowering disabled servicemen and women.

In an effort to hold you accountable to your fitness and goals during this challenge, outside of providing workouts, we’re asking participants to collect donations to support our mission. For every hour that you work out, have a family member, friend or coworker pledge to sponsor your activity. Our goal this year is to raise over $20,000, and we won’t be able to do that without your help.
