Fit Together! Challenge Team Leaders
Spring 2013 Challenge Starting Feb 25th, 2013

Thanks for Stepping Up!
There can't be a team challenge without Team Leaders to take charge and whip everyone into action.  So thank you in advance for agreeing to be that person - our Fit Together! Challenge depends on motivated, organized and, well, slightly bossy, people just like you!  It's a compliment!   Nothing good every came from sitting on the couch eating bonbons ...  Well, not in our book anyway ...

So, who's ready to kick some butt?  As you know, the Fit Together! Corporate Team Challenge is all about "friendly" competition to get us moving, eating better and making some all around healthier choices.  Let's put those competitive juices to work for our community ...

Basic Information
All the basic information about who can participate, what's involved, how you track and earn points, etc. etc. is posted below with all the paperwork that we (well, mostly you) will be using to keep track of your team's progress.  We'll give you a hard copy of this stuff when you pick up your Team Leader's folder at Club Energy but in case you lose something or want to print more copies, etc. we're posting it all here too.  We love technology!

In a nutshell the challenge starts February 25th, 2013.  Teams of 8 people.  $112/team registration fee (or $132/team if you're slackers and register & pay after February 18th, 2013).   Each team member gets a Healthy Newport dri-fit long sleeved shirt (your choice of blue, forest green or grey (first come first served basis) and with your team name or logoon the sleeve) and a cool pedometer. If you already have or don't use a pedometer, please consider donating the new ones back so we can save money and sponsor students who want to participate but can't afford the registration fee.  Compete in weekly activity, nutrition and mystery challenges and, new this time around, surprise "Shake Up" team challenges, and earn points for your achievements.  Wear a pedometer and/or use our step conversion chart to track the step equivalent of various activities - no double dipping!  More info on how to use pedometers and step conversion charts can be found here.  Each week, turn in your tracking sheets.  As weekly rankings are posted, cheer as you beat rival teams or cry as they slip ahead of you in the rankings.  Plot revenge on those darn NHHS teams - PT Ninjas and Trimmin the Fat!  Get in shape just in time for the summer season and celebrate your health at our wrap party and "Souperbowl" community soup-off set for Earth Day, April 22nd, 2013.   YOU are worth it!

Team Rankings
Each week, we'll be posting updated team rankings on the Team Ranking page.  Of course we'll also be posting the rankings at Club Energy and on Facebook, just to keep everyone motivated.  We'll also post the latest Mystery Challenge (and any Shake Up Challenge) as well, so your team members can always find it here.  Check out how you're doing against your competition and put together a plan to kick their butt!  Oh, and be forewarned, if you don't get your team tracking sheets in to us by 12pm (noon) each Tuesday, we'll deduct 25 points for being late.  Don't say we didn't warn you!

Questions
If you have any questions about any of this stuff, feel free to either Contact Us before the challenge has begun or, once you're underway, contact our tracking coordinator at Club Energy (cefittogether@gmail.com).
