Before devouring your Thanksgiving meal Thursday, you can get some preemptive exercise in at Oak Creek High School.

As part of his Weight Loss Challenge, Mayor Steve Scaffidi will host a one-hour walk around the high school track at 8 a.m. Thursday.

Scaffidi said anyone is welcome to join, regardless of whether they signed up for the challenge.

The initiative started Nov. 10 with 465 people attending a kick-off event at the high school. Organizers are tracking how much weight participants can collectively lose before the challenge ends Feb. 10.
