Athens Move is a project that I am associated with. The premise behind Athens MOVE … is to get people moving and living healthier lives by increasing their physical activity and improving their diet. Athens MOVE has been created through the collaboration of individuals and organizations that share a common passion for improving the lives of our citizens and community through sports, recreation, fitness and wellness programs. With the support of our Advisory Council and community partners, we focus on four basic goals:
Convince people of all ages about why they need to increase their physical activity and improve their diet.
Educate them about the many different ways that they can get moving and eat better.
Inspire them to take action through examples of people who have committed to making healthy changes in their lives and have incredible stories to share.
Connect them with the organizations, facilities and resources that can help them get moving and living a healthier life.
