Climb Every Mountain Fitness Challenge Week 5 Results

Week 5 Climb Every Mountain Fitness Challenge Results

Here are Week 5 results of our Climb Every Mountain Fitness Challenge. A total of 20 participants sent in numbers for this week, with a grant total for week 5 of 262 points, equaling over 87 hours of physical activity. We are nearing the halfway point of the challenge!

In additional to caring for one's physical needs, many participants are reaping mental, emotional, and spiritual rewards as we exercise. Walking outside and enjoying the beauty of nature has been shown to increase one's immune system and feelings of well-being. Some folks in the challenge are taking the time to pray while exercising as well.

Feel free to join us for a group walk tomorrow, April 15 Woodleaf United Methodist Church, where we'll meet and then drive to Catawba College to enjoy walking in the ecological preserve. You might want to bring a camera!

Week 5 Results - Walk to Bethlehem PA Points

Week 5 Results for 2016 Walk to Bethlehem, PA Fitness Challenge

Sixteen participants turned in totals for week 5 of the Woodleaf UMC 2016 Walk to Bethlehem, PA fitness challenge. This fitness challenge encourages participants to exercise an average of 20 minutes per day. Participants earn 1 point for each 20 minutes of exercise with a goal of 7 points/week.

Altogether, participants earned a total of 171 points for week 5 with a grand total from the start of 1324 points. Numbers are a little lower as quite a few folks were traveling and preparing for Thanksgiving or fighting illness. I applaud those particularly that are incredibly self-motivated during this busy time of year. I have no doubt that we'll all get back on track soon!

There is still time to join the fitness challenge! Turn in Week 6 (11/20 through 11/26) totals to me via email at nurseforwoodleafUMC@gmail.com or at Woodleaf United Methodist Church. Click here to see details regarding the fitness challenge.
