In this day and age, the lifestyle of the average person has become more sedentary. According to Sanford Health, "Sitting is the new smoking: a silent killer". IACAW's aim is to get you moving, walking, and on your way to a healthier life. 

The aim of the IACAW steps challenge is to encourage and motivate an active lifestyle within community.
