Our team’s Summer Health & Fitness Challenge last year was a huge hit, so we’re kicking off winter with our first ever Winter Health & Fitness Challenge.

It’s an initiative to keep active in the cooler months and to maintain a healthy diet when the freezing cold weather makes us want to curl up with a cup of hot chocolate and eat an excessive amount of addictive processed carbohydrates.

We’re doing it and hope that you’ll join our team over the next 4 weeks. Each week is worth 1000 points and the points are distributed like this:
