Super Fitness Challenge 2006

Welcome to Super Challenge 2006! We believe we have created the ultimate Fall - Winter Activity program designed to motivate you to become healthier, more energetic and have fun in the process.

The change for this program this year is a greater focus on improvement. Everyone wants to feel better, have more energy and trim down. So we have built a focus on getting better every week, right into the challenge.

Read on for more information and details on the program.

1) Dates: The Challenge starts Monday September 25th and ends December 24th. The Challenge is 13 weeks in length.

2) Requirements: There are TWO levels of participation. One will require an Entry fee, the other will not. To paticipate in PRIZES an Entry Fee of $50 will be required, paid up front. Prizing will be given out at a special celebrations event to be held in early January (available to everyone who completes the Challenge).

3) Committment: Each participant must commit to 150 Minutes or 200 Minutes of Activity each week and must post that activity for all participants to view. For the 150 Minute challenge you must post 5 days of activity every week. For the 200 Minute challenge you may opt for 4 days of activity each week (fewer days but more minutes - get it?)You may commit upfront to specifics around the activity or leave that open (such as dietary committments).

4) Entry: Each participant will be asked to complete (3) Three simple Tests during the starting week - a Harvard Step Test to determine fitness, a Flexibility Test and a standard Girth Test. The results will be yours to keep, however you must post % of change every second week to arrive at a TOP 3 ranking for each category. The participants with the greatest improvement will be top ranked. The test notes will go out this week.

5) Mulligans: Based on the flexibility built into to the individual challenge, there will be no mulligans available.

6) Members must be signed up by no later than Sept 30th and of course have already begun thier activity during that week.

I'm in! I'd like to join under the 4x a week option and i'm most certainly going for the cold cash prize so count me in for that too! thanks! -sara (i'll get back to you on my code name)
 
Just so there is no confusion, I am in as well. I'm going with the 4 day cycle.

PLEASE NOTE that you don't need to commit to one or the other, if you get to a point in the week where you can't do five days, you can go to four - but there is quite an investment in extra minutes as well.

Make sure everyone goes to the links on the blog page and completes the three (3) tests - even if you are not in for the money - this way we can still rank all the players!

If you have any questions, just let me know.
