On-Going Challenges: 

Team Step Challenge (Click here to sign up) 

The Team Step Challenge will promote wellness by encouraging participants to walk more often during the day. Participants may use supported activity tracking devices to record the number of daily steps taken and transmit this number into the ChallengeRunner.com system. The totals of those steps are then compared against one another and a real-time leaderboard is made available. 

This challenge will run from November 1st to 30th. At the conclusion, the top three teams will receive: 

  1. JagFit Crewneck Sweatshirts, JagFit T-Shirt, & JagFit Water Bottle 
  2. JagFit T-Shirt & JagFit Water Bottle 
  3. JagFit T-Shirt 

In addition, the top 3 overall individual participants will receive a JagFit gym bag & JagFit Water Bottle. 

Challenge Rules: 

  • Teams will be challenged to complete a certain amount of steps per team weekly. 
  • Weekly steps are due on Saturdays at 11:59pm. 
  • Participants will need to download the Challenge Runner App but will be able to manually enter steps if they do not use a wearable device. 
  • Teams are limited to 10 participants per team. 
  • The first person that signs up the team will be designated the team captain. Additional members will just need to select that team name from the list of teams to join. 
  • In the leaderboard, each participant is able to see where they stand in relation to other participants using real names.
  • Devices should be synced every day; however, participants may take up to seven days after the log date to sync data.
