Before registered nurse Kelly Tucker joined an employee walking program called Club Tread last year, she said she was falling asleep on her couch at home by 8 p.m.
?I became a slug,? she said. ?I knew I needed to get in shape.?
Now in its fourth year at Kaweah Delta Health Care District, Club Tread gets employees in the club free pedometers and a friendly competition.
About 900 employees out of 3,500 signed up for the six-week wellness program that started May 16, said John Tyndal, director of community outreach.
?Our goal is 10,000 steps a day,? he said.
Club Tread targets the employee who is looking for an easy activity to increase his or her fitness level, he said.
