To all,
 
An update through Sunday, October 16 (one week of results), assuming most daily steps have been input.  95 individuals (so far) are actually tracking their average steps, AND WE AS A GROUP ARE AVERAGING OVER 13,000 STEPS PER DAY.  DYNAMITE!!!  The standings by team:
 
Morris Caribbean 30,888
Statesboro 23,359
Hinesville  20,298
Corporate 17,306  (woohoo!)
WCBI  16,129
Great Bend 13,446
WDEF  12,882
Oakdale  12,810
WTVQ  12,636
WWAY  11,734
 
Also, Wisconsin, Covington, Morris Technology and WXXV are all averaging over 10,000 steps per day.  A capital WOOHOO!
 
My Personal Pledge (that has the promise to impress all…except Steve Hunte and the rest of our top 10) – if the Cubs win the World Series, I will do a 40,000 day before this challenge is over and end it with the ice bucket challenge…and not die in the process.
 
Individual masters of the stepping universe (with 7 days):
 
Steve Hunte                          Morris Caribbean     43,488 (We Are Not Worthy!!!)
Hunter McCumber               Statesboro                 33,329
Marlin Nesmith                     Statesboro                 31,582
Sheila Jones                        WCBI-TV                   26,164
Dale Hogg                             Great Bend                25,865
Tyler Swank                          Great Bend                23,307
Shonita Swank                    Great Bend                21,747
Patty Leon                             Coastal Courier        20,297
Annette Benton                    Covington/Mike’s     19,874
Richard Kurazawa               Corporate                  18,816           
 
Kudos to Great Bend for the best participation (again) in the group with 25 participants.  Just awesome.
 
It has definitely been more challenging with this time of the year more busy than some of the others, but that’s why it’s called a Challenge!!!  
 
Thank you for your time and interest!

​To all,

To continue with our wellness initiative and to give us all a distraction from this election season, Morris in Motion will launch a Fall 2016 contest starting October 10.  

The challenge will run through November 13 and will award two team and two individual prize winners – team with the most average steps and team with the most average step improvement over the original contest in the spring of 2015, and individuals with the same.  We’ll also award the individual with the most average steps as well as individual with the greatest improvement.  

Local contests are also encouraged, though many of you are already doing so.

The contest is open to employees, spouses and dependents.  If you need additional pedometers, let Jennifer Delgado-Cruz know as soon as you can.

We will continue to use the step equivalent chart attached, but this challenge will be a “motion” challenge – we will not include “standing desk equivalents” this go around.

Use the following link to register (you will need to re-register) and choose the proper location to do so.

-Individuals should go ahead and fully register into the program for review and testing.  Make sure to choose the correct team you will join for the challenge.
-Note: Participants will not be able to report steps until official start date of 10/10/16.

We will continue to update both via e-mail and through our wellness website, as follows:
