USANA Healthy Living Pinterest Contest Winners

Two weeks ago, we issued you a challenge, and you answered big-time. Seventy-seven entries and thousands of pins later, the USANA Healthy Living Pinterest Contest is one for the history books.

We asked pinners to create boards that inspired them to live a healthy life. We left the options wide open, asking that there be a variety of pins and that they depict a healthy lifestyle.

The creativity part came in the choosing, and boy did pinners choose. Pins ranged from hiking, swimming and bouncing on the trampoline to healthy recipes, inspirational quotes and vacation guides. Books, products, people, teams and charts also were highlighted.

Choosing just three pinners to win our awesome prizes was incredibly difficult, which is why we’re including four honorable mentions. Though the honorable mentions won’t receive any prizes, we think their work is worth showing off.

Entries were narrowed down by adherence to the rules — repinning the official pin, posting link on the official pin comments and emailing a link to the USANAcontest email address (due to confusing wording we eliminated the #usanahealthyliving hashtag requirement).

Each of the eligible boards was then judged on creativity, variety and depiction of a healthy lifestyle. The judging panel was made up of employees from USANA’s social media, public relations, marketing, communications and creative departments.
