Move100 Ambassador Recap & $5,000 Giveaway

Remember a few months ago when I posted about the Move100 Ambassador Search over here on Healthy Chicks? Well, I am proud to announce that I was chosen as one of the ambassadors to take part in their amazing initiative, that is encouraging people to stay fit and move more each day.

As a Move100 Ambassador, I was given some pretty cool tools to track my training, some dumbbells for strength training and a whole lotta love from the whole Move100 team, particularly Lynn and Bob, who I can’t thank enough for this incredible opportunity.

A few weeks after I was notified I’d be one of their ambassadors, I took a trip to South Hamilton for a photo-shoot, interview and video shoot. If you watch the video on the homepage, you can see some shots of me doing yoga, stretching and running. How cool is that? There’s also a blown up picture of me here on the “Moving Stories” page, where you can actually read my personal wellness story, including how I lost 30 pounds and found happiness.

They even filmed my interview, where you can watch in full here. I was a bit camera shy (hence the awkward, shaky tone) but my message was clear nonetheless. After all, I get the greatest pleasure in inspiring others to live a healthier lifestyle and feel good about their bodies again, on the inside and out.

Wait, it gets even better! The lovely team at Move100 is hosting a contest on their website, which you can enter daily for your chance to win $5,000.

    Congrats on being picked, girl! That must feel so surreal to be in that video and to have had a photoshoot done. You deserve it! I love campaigns that don’t necessarily say you have to run miles to be fit. MOVEMENT in general is just so beneficial!

    […] Also, be sure to take risks by trying new classes and different types of exercise, as you may surprise yourself. This morning I took a hot yoga class with a friend at Prana Power Yoga in Central Square and haven’t felt such a sense of bliss in a long time. In the past year, I’ve completed my THIRD half marathon (I can’t believe I’m saying that), PR’d my 5K by over a minute, and took part in the Move100 Initiative. […]
