UPCOMING CHALLENGE
There is no doubt that new fitness goals are among the most popular New Year's Resolutions. Most people use the New Year as a fresh start and a great time to work on their health and wellness. However, it is not uncommon to slowly fall off the new year's wagon before the month ends. Whether you have a specific fitness goal or just want to stay moving each day, this challenge will help you jumpstart the new year!
These next two weeks we challenge you stay active for the recommended 30 minutes per day! Some days will be more difficult than others, especially with cold weather in the forecast, but that's why it's called a challenge! :) YOU'VE GOT THIS!
This challenge BEGINS ON SATURDAY, January 19th!
JOIN THE CHALLENGE HERE and be sure to invite your colleagues! Goals are always easier to reach (and a lot more fun) with accountability partners.
Stay active between challenges!
Our goal is to have a few challenges each month. However, please do not be discouraged if there is down time between challenges! Stay active, continue your walks and your workouts, and encourage your coworkers to join you. The MoveSpring app will capture all your activity even when there is no challenge in progress. Want to put your coworkers to the test? Reach out to us if you'd like a private challenge with another department, grade or school!
