You're invited to our Turkey Trot, Stroll, Bike, and More (Virtual) Fitness Community Challenge happening from Friday, November 17th to Sunday, December 3rd via Strava.
This wellness event is about connecting Scholars and Alumni and encouraging everyone to stay active for both their mental and physical health. The fall and winter holidays are often a time for families of all kinds to come together. Join your Boettcher Family this November for two weeks of turkey trotting...or walking, biking, or any other type of exercise you enjoy! While there is a competitive element to this event, our focus is on building community and supporting each other. Even if you only go for one Thanksgiving stroll or yoga turkey pose (is that a thing?), join us! (And see below for the latest on our Colorado Gives Day prizes!)
LOGISTICS FOR PARTICIPATING
Download the Strava: Run, Ride, Swim app on your phone or other mobile device.
Create an account and set up your profile! All the features you need for this event should be available from the Free version, so when prompted to pay or begin your free trial, click skip to opt out of the premium version.
Once your profile is set up, navigate to “Groups,” then select the “Clubs” tab and search for “Boettchers on the Move.” Join the club and register for our event “Fall Fitness Challenge.” The event will be open for registration until December 3rd at 11:59 pm MT in order to allow everyone to register by the end of the second weekend.
For our Fall Fitness Challenge, we will count any running, walking, biking, skiing, hiking, or other activity towards the final prizes. There will be prizes for the most activity time, the greatest number of activities, and a random participant drawing! Extra consideration will be given for creativity (7.2 miles for a ‘72 scholar, wearing fun Boettcher swag on your run, photos with actual turkeys you spot along your route, etc). Strava allows you to include pictures and a description, so be sure to describe your creative take on the challenge and include your Scholar year or Boettcher affiliation!
And in an exciting update introduced last year, prize winners can choose to receive Boettcher swag or a Colorado Gives Day Giving Card. These Giving Cards allow the holder to assign the card value as a donation to a Colorado nonprofit of their choice on the Colorado Gives website.
● Please also register so we can keep track of participants and award prizes at the end! Be sure to join the Strava event, which will be available until Sunday, December 3.
● If you have any issues finding the club or joining the event, feel free to contact Lori Marchando at LMarchando83@gmail.com. You can also create an account and join the club on your computer at this link: www.strava.com/clubs/BoettchersOnTheMove
