SPRING TEAM CHALLENGE

Welcome! This quarter we are doing our first ever team challenge! This event will last for 4 weeks from March 7th - April 5thThere will be a $5 buy in per person and all funds will go towards the total cash prize pool!

How It Works

This challenge will be based on the number of points you can accumulate as a team throughout the 4-week challenge. You will need to download an app called ChallengeRunner onto your phone or you may use the website. The team with the highest combined accumulated points will be the winners of the challenge. There is a variety of ways to accumulate points such as steps, active minutes, or going to group exercise classes. Also, there are other one-time events that grant you a larger amount of points such as the Meditation Seminar or the San Jose Shamrock Run.

How You Get Points

Each activity varies in points. Look below to see how you can get points for each activity. Keep in mind that ChallengeRunner can sync with most wearable technology (Fitbit, Apple Watch, Garmin, Samsung, etc.) to keep track of steps and active minutes for you.

Note: For some of the activities we will have to add the points for you to keep accountability.
