In February twenty-nine participants began a journey of discovery about food and its affects. At long last, we are announcing the winners of the Go Against the Grain challenge. When we embarked on this journey, we wanted it to mean more then results. Of course results are cool and important, after all who does not want to look better naked! The bigger vision was to have people who stuck it out to discover something more meaningful.
To say that it was difficult to pick a winner is a major understatement. At the end of the challenge we had 18 people complete the commitment by submitting their pictures and writing an essay. In the end, every one of the 18 people are winners in my book. This is not an easy task by any measure, as it is not called a challenge for nothing. My hat is off to all who took up the challenge.
