Calling All Boston Area Fitness Gals
Posted by Jenny on 07/28/09 in Boston
Does anyone want to form a team with me for this challenge? I need at least 3 non-members of Healthworks (my gym), but if chosen, you’ll have access to any of the 5 Boston area Healthworks!

Once my road race is over (August 9th) I need something else to keep me going … this looks like a perfect opportunity. Anyone? Anyone? Leave a comment or email me at jenny [at] this domain dot com.

Do you have to be a HealthWorks member?
Jenny | Jul 28, 2009 | Reply
Nope! In fact I need three NON-MEMBERS!!!

Duh, Erin. Obviously I’m not a skilled reader! I’m not a member and I’m definitely interested.

Awesome. If I get enough gals, I’ll definitely keep you updated!
(You get to use any of the 5 facilities throughout the challenge if our team gets picked! So that’s a bonus. But I have to warn you – you’ll get sucked in. I love that place. Oh and if you do … you know who referred you ;) haha)

I am not a HW member and I would be interested in this!

AWESOME! I’m compiling a list of all the girls interested. If I get enough (members and non-members) I’ll shoot out and email and we’ll all coordinate!!

In theory I would be interested but I am more than terrified by it and also in terrible shape still and also am going to Italy for a week in September. Phew. Look at that, I just saved you from me.
Good luck though!

Hi Jenni,
So are we competing on fitness skill like strength, agility, etc. or is this a fitness challenge about how losing weight and fat, building lean muscle…?

From what I gather, the challenge is about OVERALL progress.
This is from the site:
The entire team is assessed at the beginning of the competition in four categories (weight loss, wall sit, plank, and modified push up). The team with the greatest percentage of change wins! (We select two teams per club, so 10 teams in total are competing against one another.)
So not everyone will be on the same level to start or to end, but it’s the greatest progress and level of change that wins!!
You in? ;)

If you haven’t already filled your slots, I’m totally interested!

Hmmm…I’m honestly interested (and a non-member). But I’m pretty sure I’m too far away from Boston (and “Boston area locations”) to play. Hope you can find enough people! :-)

I’ll do it if you still need someone who’s a non-member! Free personal training, yes please.

If you still need team members, I’d be interested. I’m a current HW member.

I would definitely be interested in joining your team (non-member) if you are still looking.
