<div>Hello All, </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>A few fire department members are looking to do a small
competition for motivation to get into better shape and lose some
weight in the process. We have some ideas about reasonable goals
and time frames, but will not finalize until we get an idea of how
many people are interested. The general idea is a 6 month
competition with a weight loss goal and a fitness challenge at the
end. The competition will begin on January 15th and end on July
15th, with the fitness challenge on a Saturday or Sunday around
that time. There will be a monetary, reasonable "buy in" at the
beginning, with a winner takes all finish. The last place finisher
will be required to cook a meal for all participants of the
competition at a mutually agreed upon time and place. This
challenge will be open to all members, including front office
staff.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If you are interested in being a part of this, please email
back to <a href="mailto:holdenfirechallenge@gmail.com"
target="_blank">holdenfirechallenge@gmail.com</a>, no later than
December 27th. Please include your height, weight, and what
general fitness goals you would like to achieve. The format will
be determined by the number of people who would like to be
involved. A confirmation email will be sent by January 3rd with
the final layout of the competition and further details. The first
"weigh-in" will be the week of January 15th, with bi-weekly
weigh-ins and status reports to follow. </div>
