Healthy Habits are Rewarding. Announcing 2012′s Healthies award recipients.

 

The Healthies

Each year, in tandem with National Employee Wellness Month, Virgin HealthMiles presents its annual “Healthies” awards. The Healthies recognize individuals for their efforts to improve and maintain a healthy lifestyle. And they celebrate the spirit of healthy behavior change taking place across the nation. This year, we introduced four new categories:

  • Significant Health Improvements
  • Spreading the Health
  • Creative Ways to Get Healthy
  • Reaching Major Milestones
