Challenges
& Events
Co-Movement is kicking off the New Year with a tradition that held strong for many years, and was an absolute blast. In 2024 it is returning. Our monthly fitness challenges. These challenges are designed to give everyone a task to focus on, build community and push yourself to new limits. There is a new expo board hanging at the gym, feel free to keep your updated score on the board. We will announce our monthly winners at the end of each month. While some challenges may or may not favor your strong suits, I highly recommend giving them all a shot.
January 2024:
Challenge: Complete a maximum number of steps over the course of the month. Sounds simple but the real question is how far can you walk and/or run? We are not tracking mileage; we are counting steps, which means you need to keep track by using your watch or phone. (no guessing). Highest number of steps at the end of the month wins.
