Now that the dust has settled on our second SHIFT walking challenge, we just wanted to say a huge thank you to all that took part and acknowledge all our winners.
But first we wanted to highlight some of the fantastic feedback we received from our participants. It only encourages us to do more and we hope it inspires more Members to take part next time. Thank you:
I absolutely loved this challenge, my galaxy wearable broke half way through and so I quickly bought a Fitbit. I set up a team called " individuals together" and it was great to be part of a team, even though I haven't met them. We did quite well too :)
I like challenges, I am motivated by competition and felt that I needed to keep my steps up, so as not to let my team ( or myself ) down. The communication by Goodforyou was excellent, the platform worked really well. I definitely made much more of an effort to walk every day and would recommend this challenge.-- Andrea Cameron, HealthCarePlus Member & GoodForYou user.
I did this challenge in October and it has made a really positive change in my life. I have kept walking and enjoy being in the fresh air and tracking my steps. I love doing this alongside others and the competition element has been extra motivating. Before this challenge I had no inclination to do any form of exercise. I now try and find ways to move more during the day and love watching my steps increase throughout the day.
Definitely gave me a positive change and supported other healthy changes I’ve made alongside my son/ team mate. It’s been great fun.
We are now thinking of setting up a step challenge at work to continue with the challenge, as we are a work-based team!. It was great competing against other teams, as that provided real motivation for us!! It also provided us with a sense of collaboration, working together to get steps up, and not wanting to let the team down.
I lost five kg and dropped my resting heart rate five beats per minute. Definitely helping my health, thank you!
And Congratulations to all our winners!
