Voting in Round 1 of the Health Hero Challenge Semifinals Is Now Open!


The time has come, my friends! At long last, the voting in the 2014 Health Hero Challenge is officially underway.

This morning at 10, we opened Round 1 of the Health Hero Challenge semifinals. You can cast a vote right here on our Facebook page.

You’ll need to like us on Facebook to participate, and you may vote for your Health Hero once every 24 hours.

Here are the four challengers up for voting this week:

Katie Monroe
Founder of Women Bike PHL

David Wurtzel
Founder and executive director of The First Twenty

Dr. Ignacio Valencia
Neurologist at St. Christopher’s Hospital for Children, associate professor of pediatrics at Drexel University College of Medicine, and medical committee at the Epilepsy Foundation of Eastern Pennsylvania’s Camp Achieve

Allison Schwartz
Founder of GFit Women

Voting will stay open for our Round 1 Challengers until noon on Monday, October 13th. Round 2 voting will open at 10 a.m. on October 14th. The winner from each week will go on to the finals in November. And, FYI, we keep the weekly winners a secret—it’s called suspense, people!

Good luck, Challengers! And happy voting, readers.
