Welcome to Get Up, Get Active! Let me begin by telling you a little bit about myself. My name is Jaimi, but I go by Mimi. I currently live in Greenbrier, Arkansas, and I am married to a wonderful man and we are blessed to be raising two bright teenage boys. I am in my second year of the Health Studies doctoral program at Texas Woman’s University, and my focal area is public health. Throughout my experiences, I have realized I am extremely passionate about several health topics, one of which is physical activity. Physical activity can be conducted in various ways, so finding something that is interesting and fun is important! We all need to participate in it, so why not have fun with it? The most recent activity I have found myself fond of (and slightly addicted to) is obstacle and mud racing. But before you knock it, you must try it!! =)
