It's time to chase the turkey again this December. If you've not run this challenge before, it's great fun for members and staff alike, gets lots of people talking and running in the gym, and is great for social media and enagement with local businesses.
The idea is that everyone signs up for a running challenge, one of your instructors or staff is The Turkey, and everyone who runs further than the turkey for the first 14 days of December enters the prize draw to win... a turkey (or equivalent).If you can get a local butchers shop to donate a turkey, or hamper (in return for some publicity) this makes for a great prize, but a voucher for another local shop, or for a national retailer works too.
We want lots of people to be in the draw at the end of the challenge, so make sure the turkey doesn't run too far or too fast!
The mywellness challenge app makes this a great challenge, but you could set-up a whiteboard or spreadsheet and ask everyone to (honestly) log their distance run on treadmills, or on other running apps... honesty is the best policy, but at the end of the day, this is supposed to be fun!
