Wednesday, January 28, 2004
According to two recent KCStar articles, KCs repeated listing among the nation's fattest cities in Men's Fitness magazine's yearly ratings (No. 14 this year) has finally brought a response:
Mayor Kay Barnes and Research Medical Center launched a yearlong citywide fitness campaign Tuesday after Men's Fitness magazine again ranked the city as one of the nation's fattest - No. 14 in this year's list.

Participants in the campaign, called "Get Moving KC," can pledge to adopt healthier habits by losing weight, quitting smoking, eating better and exercising more.
