Lights of the World Week 1 Totals

Week 1 of the Woodleaf United Methodist Church Lights of the World fitness challenge ran from August 27 through September 2, 2017. Thirty-two participants turned in totals for week 1 - a record week for any of our fitness challenges to date! Participants were physically active through a wide variety of activities, such as walking, exercise classes, weight lifting, yoga, and one participant has been working particularly hard helping folks down in Houston after the hurricane.

Here are Week 1 totals:

Week 1 Results - 2016 Walk to Bethlehem PA Points

Week 1 Results for 2016 Walk to Bethlehem, PA Fitness Challenge

Twenty-two participants turned in totals for week 1. The 2016 Walk to Bethlehem, PA challenge encourages folks to exercise an average of 20 minutes/day. Each 20 minutes of exercise earns participants 1 point with a weekly goal of 7 points. Altogether, participants earned a total of 293 points during week 1. I've graphed the results below.

This has been a great start to the challenge! As you can see, many folks not only met the 7 point goal but exceeded it. I look forward to seeing Week 2 totals. Several people mentioned what types of exercise they are doing, including walking, working out in the gym, playing pickleball, participating in aerobics classes, and even mowing the yard with a manual push lawn mower. Way to go for the first week!
