Today I received an email inviting me to "walk" in an event that my company is sponsoring. So I decided to join. Below are some details:
Teams of 4 employees will be formed to help motivate, assist, and provide friendly competition with other teams. Each team will have a Captain (that's me
) who is responsible for recording
their teammates’ progress each week. You’ll also need a name for your team… be creative!
Week 1 – 1,000 Steps / Day Week 2 – 2,000 Steps / Day
Week 3 – 3,000 Steps / Day Week 4 – 4,000 Steps / Day
Week 5 – 5,000 Steps / Day Week 6 – 6,000 Steps / Day
Week 7 – 7,000 Steps / Day Week 8 – 8,000 Steps / Day
Week 9 – 9,000 Steps / Day Week 10 – 10,000 Steps / Day (~ 5 miles)
To join we donate $5 and receive a pedometer and a tshirt. At the end of 10 weeks, the team who has the most steps will win a cash prize. Since we are able to walk in memory of someone as well, I've chosen that option. Here's what I would like to do. With your support, I will pledge to walk AS MUCH AS I CAN in the next ten weeks. At the end of the ten weeks, IF I am on the winning team, I am going to donate 100% of my prize to the following charities: The American Heart Association (in memory of Mike) and The American Cancer Society (in memory of Kevin). Any donations received from friends and family will be donated the same way. (If you would like to make a donation, please send me a PM)
Your words of encouragement will mean alot as well, so please please please.....if you can't give a monetary donation, keep me moving the next 10 weeks. I have a feeling I'll need it!
Now for the fun part....we need a team name. You have until Sunday night to give me ideas!
