About

Begins: January 21, 2013 / Ends: April 18, 2013

The Get Fit Challenge is a semester-long program where students, faculty, and staff will team-up to compete for points to earn weekly prizes. Points will be earned by working out, participating in Get Fit Challenge activities, keeping food journals, and utilizing on-campus fitness, nutrition, and wellness resources.

Participants will have access to various fitness/nutrition seminars and workshops that will be put on each week. There will also be periodic assessment opportunities done by fitness and nutrition professionals.

Additionally, Dr. Julie Jahn's HPHP students will be collecting data as part of a research project.
