The true secret of Youth- Exercise!

Hello Everyone,
Yesterday on the cover of the Ottawa Citzen was a story titled "The true secret of Youth? Exercise!
The article was about a study done on mice: one group exercised for 3x a weeks doing moderate treadmill for 5 months and the second group did not exercise. The results were amazing, the exercised mice were healthier in every aspect of their body ie (skin, hair,kidneys, spleen etc.) Only 3 times a week on a treadmill did it for mice it works the same for humans! Lets get busy!
Ray from Pure Life Adventures is still offering us a half day of dog sleding during the week for $50.00 a person.
I have a few people interested and we need 24 to get this deal. You can bring your friends or spouse this is not limited to just Feel Fit members. Please email and let me know your interest.
We are still looking for members to join the RElay for Life on June 4th.
Our Day of Women's Wellness is April 16th at Cambell's Bay RA Hall. The cost is $32.00 and we have 3 speakers and line dancing to end the day. This is also a Celebration of our second year of "Feel Fit" Our tickets will be available from members on Mar. 1st. Please speak to reserve a ticket from your contact person.
Also this week in the Citzen was an article in Dave Browns column on Connie Renaud's determination and persistence to get the Pontiac Ski trails up and running. Way to go Connie!
It is a beautiful day so let's make the most of it. I plan to go xcountry skiing as soon as I finish this letter.
Fitfully Yours,
Muriel
