Randy Carr earns 'Biggest Winner' fitness honor

Biggest Winner competition names Randy Carr its 'biggest winner' None
Randy Carr of Knoxville has been pursuing health and fitness for years but has never quite been able to get where he wanted to be. Now, he finally feels like he's moving in the right direction.
Carr was named Thursday as the Covenant Health Knoxville Marathon Biggest Winner, outpacing his competitors in overall health achievement and efforts to be an ambassador for health and fitness to the community.
The Covenant Health Biggest Winner Weight Loss Challenge is a friendly competition between members of a selected team who train together for the Knoxville Marathon. During the five-month program, team members get advice on health and fitness from Covenant Health and the Knoxville Track Club.
Covenant Health fitness advocate Missy Kane said it's not about losing weight so much as it's about gaining overall health and well-being.
"The Biggest Winner isn't all about weight loss," Kane said in a news release. "It's about changing your life and the lives of others."
Carr has lost about 12 pounds on the program, and his body fat has dropped 3.8 percent. He also dropped some mental baggage that was holding him back from reaching and keeping fitness goals.
"I was always so self-conscience," Carr said, "and always felt like the fat kid standing on the sidelines on the playground. Too afraid to jump in, and not feeling like I belonged."
All that's changed since Carr started the program in early November. In addition to guidance from a registered dietitian, exercise physiologist, physical therapist and Kane, Carr took full advantage of life coaching sessions and personal training from Chris O'Hearn at Fort Sanders Health and Fitness Center.
Carr said he's come out of his shell, so much so that he's ready to step forward and use what he's learned to help others. He credits the program with giving him the courage to pursue and obtain certification as a personal trainer. In particular, he looks forward to working with people who are in the same situation he's been in.

Health Festival: Face Paints, Fitness
Posted: at 1:30 pm
Spring has sprung across LA, and the North Area Neighborhood Development Council has teamed up with Charles Drew University to hold this years Spring Into Health Festival at the Martin Luther King Jr. Recreation Center.
The festival, scheduled for Saturday, March 31st, offers a fun way to raise awareness in the community about health, fitness, and nutrition through various activities, workshops, and screenings.
Free dental, vision, and health screenings will be on offer, as well as fitness tips and other information about health care coverage programs.
Yelba Castellon, the at large representative for the North Area Neighborhood Development council, is helping to organize this years event.
Having grown up in South Los Angeles, Castellon strives to give back to her community and hopes that this years Spring Heath Festival will help to make a difference.
I think the reason why were all on the Empowerment Council is to address issues of our community, and its no surprise that South Los Angeles needs more access to health screenings, Castellon said. Were trying to respond to the community needs.
This year, the festival includes a Kids' Spring Fun Zone, complete with carnival games, arts and crafts, face painting, and an Easter egg hunt, as well as an Earth Day Zone, which will include planting activities for families and provide environmentally oriented information.
In addition, there will be an inflatable obstacle course, tennis clinics, yoga and fitness classes, free health screenings, and over 70 vendor booths.
Last year, more than 40 non-profit organizations and vendors helped to make the festival a success. Charles Drew University and UCLA volunteers also participated.
We had so many different organizations involved. Charles Drew University really stepped it up and was a great partner. They had tons of volunteers. UCLA came out and their dentistry program did free dental work, said Cassandra Reyes, the senior recreation director at the Martin Luther King Jr. Recreation Center.
