Get Motivated!
You resolve to park the car a few blocks from work, take the stairs, and take the longer route to lunch. But a few weeks pass and before you know it, parking spots start opening up right in front of the building, the elevator is already in the lobby, and you've worked late every night that week. It's not that you don't know how to get fit, you just can't seem to stay motivated. We all know people who are religious with their workouts.

Bike-U-Saurus Rax
The Virginia Museum of Natural History unveiled its 'Bike-U-Saurus Rax', a 16-foot long Tyrannosaurus Rex-shaped bicycle rack creating an exciting and visitor friendly addition outside the museum walls. The 16-space bicycle rack also encourages biking and walking in Uptown Martinsville, a trend that has continued to grow. Thanks to Barbara Jackman with the Health and Wellness Coalition, James Gravely and members of the Henry County Bike Club for biking to the museum.
