The Batesville Parks and Recreation wrapped up its first of many month-long wellness challenges on Saturday, Dec. 1, with “The Last Mile,” an event at the Batesville Community Center. A total of 83 participants in the inaugural Iron Distance Wellness Challenge planned their workouts to equal the distance of an Ironman Triathlon — a 2.4-mile swim, a 112-mile bike and a 26.2-mile run throughout the month of November.
“The Last Mile” featured participants along with family, friends, and parks staff running the final mile together and celebrating the month with treats and awards
