Congratulations for taking the first step to a healthier lifestyle!
Resolving to take the challenge was the hard part. Now, let's have some fun.
If you signed up on a individual basis, grab your neighbor, a friend, your
spouse or significant other, or a family member and get them to exercise
with you. They'll help you stay motivated!
Over the eight weeks, you will be reporting your exercise minutes weekly and
have the chance to see where you rank in the standings. If you joined as
team, all team members can check their team's progress. The team leader is
the only one who has to record the team's minutes.
Remember to complete the weekly Bonus Tip to earn additional minutes. Try incorporating these tips as part of your daily habits. They will go a long
way to helping you maintain a healthier lifestyle.

Don't forget your enrollment kit contains helpful tools:
A description of the eight-week program, logbook that contains the program
guidelines, and a personal diary for you to record your progress and keep
track of your exercise time.
A stopwatch to measure your exercise minutes.
A reflective wrist wrap to help you stay visible to traffic.
A reflective shoe pocket to carry your keys, so you can exercise
hands-free.
A reusable water bottle cap designed to let you carry a bottle of water
with ease.
Now, take the challenge and Get Fit, Get Healthy!
