Hoo Rah!

I have to (for once) agree with Jesse on his reflections of the rally. When Ashley, Jesse, and myself were planning and talking about Saturday morning, we were all very excited and hopeful as to what the hour would bring about. What I saw was truly unbelievable and blew away all of my expectations. I saw people push past their limits...whether it was running, jumping, or cheering. I saw teamwork, and I saw laughter. It was fun to look at everyone with the appropriate colored bandanna, but it was even cooler to see every color speckled around during the stretch circle at the end. I love the enthusiasm that each and every one of you are bringing to the table. Although I am biased toward my own champion Green-bees, they have mentioned the various other Towbes teammates who have been and held each other accountable over the past week and a half. Keep up the good work, and stay positive! Thank you for coming with a positive attitude and a sense of humor to the rally...look forward to some water balloons next time!!

Reflections on the First Rally...

Hello Team

This is not just for my blue team who displayed their obvious dominance at the rally today when they not only had the best turnout of team members showing up, but graced us all with their superiority in the morning activities.

This post is for the whole team, all of you competing, Ashley, Macie, and myself.

I had an awesome time this morning. You guys all did so well. I really appreciate not only all the hard work you guys put in, but also your sense of humor during it.

You all seem to be off to a fantastic start. It has been great hearing about your individual pursuits of your goals, but more than that, your accountablity towards one another. During our walking group on Thursday my blue team was sharing about how people are posting goals in the office and how they are checking on one another. When I came to meet them I saw a few of you doing some stair laps on your break... AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME!!

Keep up the good work guys you are an inspiring group to be around and I have no doubt that if you continue to work together you will reach all your goals!

Water

So how much water should I be drinking, and is it true that drinking lots of water can quell hunger pains? - Yellow Team Rules!!!!

So Excited!!

Hey Everybody! So excited about this weekend!! I hope to see everybody there ready to pelt Jessi with as many water balloons as possible!! I am gonna go jogging with my son this evening!!! GO GREEN TEAM!!! -Nicole

soda

what is it about "soda" that is so bad for you? Is it the sugar or is it the carbonation? Is it just as bad to drink TJ's carbonated water with no salt and no calories?

RAIN OR SHINE!!

Congratulations on your official week of the Towbes Corporate Wellness Challenge!! The weather has been glorious as we have begun walking, talking, and training, although I know questions have come up about some looming rain heading our way. As far at the first rally is concerned, which is THIS Saturday, January 24th at 9am, unless it is absolutely pouring rain, we will meet at Leadbetter Beach (across from the City College track) and continue on with the game plan! I am so proud to be a part of such an energetic company and will truly enjoy the taste of victory as the green team takes the gold ;-). Have a great week everyone!!

Good Luck Everyone

Before I start the competitive trash talking, I just wanted to take a moment to congratulate all who are involved in this program. This week marks the start of your six week journey to improve your health and fitness. Kudos to all of you who have stepped up to the plate.

I know the yellow and green teams will be competitive in fighting for second place, and since the blue team already has first place locked up, we must not forget that we are all in this together. So in the early goings I encourage all of you to give your fellow office mates lots of encouragement and exchange high fives for a job well done!

I am looking forward to watching you all transform!

Let the games begin!
