Humana Health Insurance Provides Pedometers
During Nationwide Tour’s Utah Championship September 11-13, Humana Health Insurance, the official health benefits company of the PGA Tour, provided pedometers to all spectators to encourage healthy exercise. This is according to an article on Humana’s website in their Newsroom.
The promotion, called Walk it Tee to Green, advised spectators to chart how many steps they took throughout the Championship walking throughout the Willow Creek Country Club. Everyone who reached 7,000 steps were entered into a drawing to win an iPod, and anyone who walked 10,000 steps were entered into a drawing for a iPod Touch.
Humana Health Insurance has brought the Walk it Tee to Green promotion to three other PGA Tours, including The Valero Texas Open, the HP Byron Nelson Championship, and the Stanford St. Jude Championship this year. The total number of steps taken at these events was 9 million steps which is about 4,621 miles. This amount of walking burned off about 406,732 calories. Walking is one of the best exercises to keep Americans healthy and Humana Health Insurance is supporting this initiative to promote healthier living.
