A group of your fellow TDC members decided to form our own challenge last year, and it’s been a great motivator to make a real commitment to exercise. Our goals have been to increase physical fitness, support each other and have a good time. Around here, we only compete against ourselves.

It's been great, but it's time to shake things up ... now we've have a new way to stay motivated!

The President's Challenge is a series of programs designed to help improve anyone's activity level. Joining a group is a great way to make staying active easy. To learn more about the President's Challenge, go to: http://www.PresidentsChallenge.org

Why Join?

Getting and staying active with others can be a lot of fun. We'll keep each other motivated - help each other through the hard parts.

There are programs for people at different activity levels: the Active Lifestyle program aimed at beginners, and the Presidential Champions program for those who are already active.

Signing up for a group is simple. You can join or leave at any time. All you have to do is register. It's quick, and there's no cost just to participate! The group administrator has access to your activity points and member name, but no personal information. Read the Privacy Policy for more information.

I'll also start a thread here on Monday to report milestones, set goals and / or share experiences. We're a unique bunch of Low Carbin' folk here in the Triple Digits Club ... let's help each other stay active!

How to join ...

1) Go to http://www.presidentschallenge.org/...individual.aspx

2) Fill out the registration form.

* Be sure to include the following info during registration

-----> Your Group ID Number: 14000

-----> Use your forum ID as your Group Member Number (i.e., I'm 'AntiM')

3) After registering, start logging your activities. As you log activities you'll be able to track your progress toward winning a President's Challenge Award or Medal. (These cost a few bucks, but are a great reward for a job well done.)

Come check it out ... Our Presidential Challenge starts Monday, August 2nd and will continue as long as you'd like to participate.

Why not join us? We’d love the company!
