Motivation for joining The Tour
Making a difference to even one person will make The Tour so valuable.
Reasons for adopting an active lifestyle
Two years ago, I had problems with my knee, and I wasn't jogging or doing much of anything and I finally had enough. I started walking, changed my eating habits, lost 26 pounds, and have kept it off. I also motivated my two sisters to get healthy and they have each lost 26–30 pounds and are fit. This is a lifestyle change for me.
Why a healthy lifestyle is important
I feel better; I am happier when I am fit and I am trying to avoid my family's history of diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease and cancer.
One piece of advice to help others live a healthier life
The key is baby steps. Approach any task in small increments.
