Description:

The JCEC Get Fit Challenge is designed to last 8 weeks, starting September 1^st and continuing through October 31^st. The student wellness program is based upon the idea of accumulating points through participation in various activities throughout the 8-weeks. The hospital along with JCEC faculty and staff will be working together to offer various educational sessions, challenges, and more. Challenges will be 1 week long and will attempt to engage students in participation of healthier sleep routines, healthier dietary choices, being more physically active, self-care in the way of stress management, and reduction of screen time. Students will gain points for participation each day and week; each week, the students who achieve 12 points or more will be entered into a raffle to win a prize. The JCEC Get Fit Challenge will utilize an online format and app called Challenge Runner to record points. Students will be placed in their respective houses within Challenge Runner and compete amongst houses for a grand prize provided by JCEC. The student can connect their Fitbit, Garmin, Apple Watch, or phone to Challenge Runner for step tracking purposes. All students are responsible for entering their own data into Challenge Runner each week.
