Wellness Activity: Join the Hydrate Heartland Challenge!

Did you know… 
• 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated? 
• Lack of water is the #1 trigger of daytime fatigue? 
• In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak that it is often mistaken for hunger? 
• Being just 2% dehydrated reduces your ability to work and can result in a 10% decrease in mental functioning? 

Well now that you know these important facts, you can help fight dehydration by joining the Hydrate Heartland Challenge! The challenge—to see who can drink the most water—will run from October 21 through November 27, and the deadline to register is October 8. 

To sign up, just get a team of 4-8 people together, select a team captain and email your team members’ names to Katie Streff, Human Resources Assistant, at kstreff@heartlandaea.org. Everyone who signs up will receive a water bottle and coaster, as well as the opportunity to win a Visa gift card up to $100! The path to wellness begins with more water!
