One area that we did not address in our original Point System was stretching. Stretching is an important piece of the overall fitness plan and helps
Stretching is important for people of all ages and fitness levels. You are able to increase your range of motion and it aids in recovery from workouts of any length or intensity. The more conditioned your muscles and tendons are, the less likely that they'll become injured.
We are opening a category for Stretching, with the ability to accumulate 1 pt. per day for 10 minutes of stretching.

Points Calculator
We have a spreadsheet created in Microsoft Excel that will help you to keep track of your daily, weekly and overall point totals. It is very easy to use, and can be opened with Google Documents or Open Office if you do not have Excel on your computer.
There is a Point Calculator section which will help tabulate your points for the week, and then a section below where you transpose your total for the corresponding week. All you need to fill in is your daily totals and the spreadsheet will do the rest - I have protected the formula areas so they can't be deleted by accident.
If you did not get it with the email let me know and I'll resend.

The Contest
Runyon Fit Club 1.0 will run from January 12, 2009 to June 24, 2009. This will give us almost exactly six (6) months of competition time, and Abby graduates from FHS on June 25! What a perfect way to celebrate after all the hard work we will put in over the next six months.
WHAT WE WON'T BE DOING
We will not be totaling percentage body weight lost or body fat lost. There are pertinent numbers needed to do so, and those are private.
WHAT WE WILL BE DOING
A point system has been created which places equal value on Diet, Cardio and Strength training. It rewards everyone who takes part. Points will be compiled on a weekly basis. We have taken into account that not everyone can get to a gym - so we will have at-home workouts for you (though you may need to purchase a set of dumbells).
Points will be awarded as follows:
* Small Meal - 1 pt per meal (based on six meals per day)
* Making and Eating Recipe of the Week - 1 pt
* Every 10 mins. of Cardio training - 1 pt
* Every 10 mins. of Strength training - 1 pt
* Pounds Lost - 1 pt per pound
** Weeks run Monday - Sunday
** Recipe of the Week must be completed by Sunday evening of week in play
Point totals will be compiled by participant (honor system) and submitted to J.C. no later than Monday morning each week. Leaders will be announced on a weekly and monthly basis.
At the conclusion of The Contest, the participant with the highest cumulative point total will be declared Champion of Runyon Fit Club 1.0 (prizes TBD).
