La-Shon George averaged nearly 49,000 steps per day last week.
Congratulations to Team Wenlock, which logged 3,016,313 steps for the 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.
