UNMC Walks to Olympics participants set records on the team and individual fronts this past week.
Jean Team hits high mark
 |
La-Shon George averaged nearly 49,000 steps per day last week. |
That is the most steps any team has walked in a single week since the inception of the “Jean Team” award.
Holy cow that’s a lot of steps
Meanwhile, La-Shon George of the Mandeville Movers notched a staggering 342,022 steps during the week to take home the Blue T-shirt. George averaged nearly 49,000 steps per day en route to her total, which also is a challenge record.
“I guess running about seven miles a day, attending a sweat class and staying active has paid off,” George said.
