The Sedona Marathon “Cinco de Marathon” is approaching quickly and the event kicks off today with the 5^th Annual “Biggest Loser” Challenge. What better way to start getting in shape for the New Year?

Rather than pounds lost over a four-week period, the Marathon will take hip and waist measurements at the start of the contest and then re-measures inches lost on race day. To participate in the Biggest Loser you must register for one of the three Marathon races:

• Marathon
• 1/2 marathon
• 5K
• Individuals or teams of 2, 3, 4 or 5 can participate
• Walkers are encouraged.
• There will be a winning category for both the individual and the team.

Simply show up at the Goldenstein Gallery on January 7 and get measured in by Richelle McMaster from Pilates by Richelle. She will provide you with tips to help you reach your goals.
