While supplies last, two-year agreement required. Several months ago, students from Pikeville High School participated in the Appalachian Health Hackathon. The hackathon was an effort to help solve health problems throughout the state. While participating in the event, the students started to realize how bad our area struggles with staying healthy and being active, so they decided to turn their school into a walking track. We could allow the public to come in and they could walk it and get their miles in, like they can actually work out, but they don't have to be outside or they don't have to have a gym membership, they can just come in here and do it for free. The students mapped out two different paths within the school to equal a mile. One path incorporates stairs, while the other does not. The students say this is just phase one of the project. Later, they intend to make a mobile app in order to count and track miles and implement competitions. We'll be able to create teams and possibly involve it into the school more, so class grades can compete against each other and the winner could get a trip to Gatties or get a trip somewhere. While the health hackathon focused on problems throughout the state, the students wanted to make an impact on their school. This walking track also goes along with the recertification of our Kentucky Green and Healthy Schools that we are part of. It is a statewide program. There are actually only 10 schools in the entire state of Kentucky that are a model Green and Healthy School and we are one of those. The track is open to students, faculty and the public. Students' flyers have been placed throughout the school explaining the different paths. Reporting in Pikeville for EKB News, I'm Shelby Steele.
