The Sports Capital of Texas Ambassadors will be at Clay Madsen Recreation Center on Wednesday, July 22 from 12 to 2 p.m. and 5 to 7 p.m. promoting the new Round to Rock fitness program.

Now I know what you’re thinking, “Who are these Ambassadors and what do they do?”
The Ambassadors are a group of Round Rock professionals and students created by Mayor Alan McGraw with the mission to engage the community in the “Sports Capital of Texas” brand and promote healthy living.

The new fitness program they are running does just that. The Sports Capital of Texas Ambassadors are looking for people who have fitness goals they are committed to reach. All you have to do is fill out an application for the Round to Rock program…and be willing to give up some of your time to sweat.

If you are selected then you get the chance of a life time to learn how to live a healthier life style through diet and exercise to reach your goal. You will get FREE fitness assessments, personal training and nutrition counseling. In return for the free training you will be featured on Channel 10 and a blog so the whole community can keep up with your progress and have the chance to get involved in other ways.

Being someone who used to work out with a personal trainer three times a week I know how expensive it can get. This is a great deal. I’m going to be jealous of the lucky people that get picked for this program.

Come out the Clay Madsen Recreation Center to hear from the Ambassadors what the program is all about. The Sport Capital of Texas Ambassadors are still taking applications for Round to Rock until Tuesday, August 11. To get the details and the application about Round to Rock visit www.roundtorock.com.
