More than 20 clergy and a couple of lay people have checked in with the conference weigh-in, reporting more than 90 pounds lost for the group since Annual Conference. Some of the individual accomplishments are even more impressive.
One clergy-person reports proudly, "I have gone off cholesterol meds!" Another cycled from Suwanee all the way to Lake Junaluska: That's 170 miles! Several are training for 5Ks, triathalons and half-marathons, while others have started walking programs or started attending regular fitness classes.
