Get Fit Challenge

2025 Winter Commit To Get Fit

 

We are going to do an eight-week challenge that will start January 13^th an end March 10^th.  We will be doing teams of two or you can participate as an individual. Individuals will only be responsible for steps. Teams will have steps, weight loss percentages, exercise, and weekly challenges that they will receive points for. Individuals will be able to participate in the challenges. There will be a participation gift for everyone at the end of the challenge. At the end of the challenge, we will give prizes for the top three teams in points. We will also give a prize for the team with the most steps and a prize to the team with the highest weight loss percentage. There will be random drawings for individuals and team members who complete the weekly challenges. We are going to be focusing on good health habits and exercise.
