LOS ANGELES, Feb. 11, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Henning Morales, CEO of The Ascent Expo, taking place February 27-March 1, 2015, at the Los Angeles Convention Center, announced today that Mark Jackson, legendary wide receiver for the Denver Broncos, New York Giants, and Indianapolis Colts, will host NFL Play60. Morales said, "Mark Jackson takes childhood obesity seriously. Mark's goal, through his non-profit charitable endeavors, is to get kids to exercise for at least an hour every day. We're proud to give Mark a forum at The Expo."
Jackson, noted, "I've always been a Cultural Creative, long before it was a popular term. As a professional athlete I bought in at an early age that TEAM comes first on the field and off the field. The Ascent Expo is a place where like-minded people and business owners can come inspire, help, contribute and receive without the pressure of making bottom line dollars. I'm sold on Henning's vision. I'll be at the Expo wearing many hats: The former NFL guy inspiring children to get active daily with the NFL program Play60, The non-profit founder -Myfig8 and The entrepreneur with Hero Bureau and online venture I'll be launching at the Expo!"
Childhood obesity is at epidemic proportions in that almost 1 in every 3 children in the US is classified as obese. Jackson's vision is to bring that number down through fun games, exercise and attention to diet. "In this day and age of video games and starring at a TV screen for hours a day," Jackson continued, "we'd like to instill in the younger generation a habit of getting active for at least 60 minutes a day! Active children become active adults."
