Registration Open for New February LivoniaFit Challenge

Do you think you have what it takes? Challenge yourself mentally and physically with a unique indoor event pattered off the new Army Combat Fitness Test (ACFT). Lift the heaviest, throw the furthest, complete as many reps as possible and move the fastest. Take on the challenge; the LivoniaFit Challenge!

Join us 8 a.m. Sunday, Feb. 13, at the Kirksey Recreation Center MAC Gyms for the LivoniaFit Challenge. Heats will begin every 20 minutes and participants will be challenged with completing a deadlift, power throw, hand-release push ups, sprint-drag-carry, TRX pull up and row for distance.

The $40 entry fee includes the event, shirt and refreshments. Register by Feb. 6 to guarantee a T-shirt. Awards will be given to the top male and female in each age division. For additional info, please contact Scott at (734) 466-2912 or sspahr@livonia.gov.
