Walktober Event 2010
The Walktober Event 2010 was a success! For those of you who do not know, we completed the Walktober event on 10/31/10. Walktober was an event with several purposes. First, we wanted to recognize and celebrate National Physical Therapy Month which is October. But we didn’t want to simply have a “party” in the office recognizing National PT month. We wanted to get people off their couches, out of their desk chairs and do something. So, we signed up 55 people who dedicated themselves to wear a pedometer for the month of October. Our goal was to walk from our office at 2767 Geryville Pike, Pennsburg PA and walk across America. Our final destination was San Francisco, CA. We really didn’t know if we were going to make it. But, we more than made it. We actually made it all the way to the beach! So, what else did this event achieve besides recognizing National Physical Therapy Month? Well, every participant paid an entry fee of $20.00. For this entry fee, they received a pedometer and a t-shirt. After paying expenses the remainder of the money went to Open Line to add to our local food pantry. We were able to give $200 to Open Line for our local food pantry. A big warm “Thank You” to each and every person who contributed. So, Walktober was a success. We recognized National Physical Therapy Month, we walked across America and we raised $200 for our local food pantry. Way to go UPPT supporters! We look forward to having you take part in our next fitness challenge.

Friday, April 2, 2010 - Biggest Loser Contest Update
We are in the midst of our own version of the Biggest Loser contest. First a little
background. We started this program in January 2010. At first my wife Jeanette didn't
like the title "Biggest Loser" contest. She wanted to name it the "Biggest Winner"
contest. I tended to agree but my staff pointed out that everybody is familiar with
the title and I should just get over it. I did. The contest is going well, very
well. So many people have had such great success. At the end of the contest, we
will make a grand total of pounds lost and inches lost compiling the measurements
from all of the participants. Some of the participants like Bill Odor have really
made substantial changes in their body as well as lifestyle. The concept of the
team idea also seems to have been a good one. People like being part of a team.
Teams push each individual to be their best. Below you will see the photos of
the team. Special thanks to Bob Peters for his help in this regard. Great work Bob!
We also had the opportunity to have Dr. Sedicum give a talk on proper diet and nutrition.
This was very informative and received well by all the participants. He offered
too much information to share with everyone in this blog but for more information
about how you can improve your diet and nutrition habits contact Dr. Sedicum at
215-529-7246. He is located at 240 S. West End Boulevard, Quakertown, PA 18951.
Also check out his web site www.drfreshdiet.com.
