What is the WOMAN Challenge?

This May, thousands of women across the country will embark on an eight-week physical activity challenge for better health. They will be part of the WOMAN Challenge: Women and girls Out Moving Across the Nation.

To kick-off the ninth annual National Women's Health Week (May 11-17, 2008) the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' Office on Women's Health is coordinating the WOMAN Challenge. The free eight week WOMAN challenge encourages women and girls to set and achieve personal physical activity goals, appropriate for their lifestyles. The WOMAN Challenge begins on Mother's Day, May 11, and ends on July 5, 2008.
