As we head into the half way mark of the challenge, some of you might be asking why you’re still motivated to make the time and effort to complete the POG’s. So let me remind you why it’s important that you follow through for you!
Reason 1
Firstly, Team Precision Fitness and The OC 6 were the top teams to recruit new participants for their respective pre-registered charities - Ocean Community YMCA Reach Out to Youth and The National Hispanic Business Womens Association – a check for 25% of your registrations is on its way to the charities. (Please note that charities needed to be pre-registered and new registrations for MOS were counted). An additional 5% is up for prizes plus With-U is donating an amount equal to 30% of total registrations - this means we’re giving away 60% of TOTAL NEW REGISTRATIONS FOR MOS! We had several pre-registered charities that your team may have submitted or you can select from the list of choices that we have if your team is a drawing winner tomorrow.
Reason 2
You – you feel better when you’re healthy.
You – you feel better when you’ve exercised.
You – you feel better when you’re not stuffed with junk food.
You – you feel better when you glide into your pants rather than vacuum pack yourself in.
You – your body has more energy when you’re eating healthy and exercising.
You – BECAUSE YOU MATTER!!
AND, bonus – there is a prize at the end for the team with the GREATEST TOTAL WEIGHT LOST! (to be donated to a pre-registered charity.)
Reason 3
You might be doing your first 5k, 10k or ½ marathon run or walk – so don’t skip out on the training. Every little bit counts towards your success over labor day weekend virtual race!
Reason 4
If you and your team hit 80% you qualify for the prize drawing tomorrow which you can donate to a pre-registered charity(one that was registered before the start of the challenge) or one from our list. You will be helping others while helping yourself feel good – it’s a win-win.
Reason 5
Because you signed up with a team! You are one of several, so don’t let them down. Support each other – this is a key to your success!! Post in the discussion group or With-U facebook. Tell your team what you’re doing and commit to making the changes that will help you towards your goals. Ask questions of your trainers in the discussion board – this is where they can answer them. We can help you if you tell us what you’re struggling with!
We’re still taking entrants – via the discussion group technical questions section – for any bugs in the new system. So far Tracy M, Lisa F and Craig M have found some bugs that we’ve already rectified. They will all be entered into a drawing to be held the last week of the challenge.
