'Stick With It' Wrap-Up & Winner!

Sheri G. posted to Tis the Season to Stick with It 1 year ago

Hello Challengers!

Welcome to the final email update and virtual awards ceremony of the "Tis the Season to Stick With It" challenge. Over five hundred of you bravely joined this adventure, and 100 crossed the important 50% mark, while 63 of you completed 80% or more. In total, 129,971 minutes of exercise were logged, 131,713 minutes of family time, 85,771 minutes of cardio, and 37,144 minutes of stretching. Wow.

Bravo to all, and especially to our top finishers: Maggie C., Elyssa N., Maymay Y., Sandra M., Scuba T., and Emily K.! Big thanks also to all who posted daily and shared wonderful pictures and updates. Of course, there can only be one Grand Prize winner....

By now, you should have received you personal prize email with coupon codes from Spirit Fitness. (PS - The coupon codes expire on January 31, 2012, so don't wait too long to redeem yours!) One lucky person, however, gets more than a coupon code. In fact, she will get to choose which Spirit Fitness cardio exercise machine will be delivered and assembled in her home. The lucky winner, by random drawing, is (drum roll)... MALISSA B! Congrats to Malissa, an English teacher and proud mother of two in Irvine, CA.

With that, we shall leave your Inbox in peace! Your challenge opportunities are not over, however, nor are your chances to win high end exercise equipment! In fact, Spirit will be giving away the "Ultimate Stick with It Kit" in January to that person who can best describe what's keeping them from achieving their fitness goals. Been too busy to exercise? This could be your ticket! Click over to the Spirit Fitness Facebook page to enter the free contest on or after January 4th.

Congratulations and thanks again, and stay tuned for future challenges from Everyday Health and Social Workout!

Very best,
The ‘Stick With It’ Prize Committee

Last aerial silks class of 2011. I worked on battling my official nemesis of 2011: the Crossback Straddle. Guess who won that battle? Hint: it wasn't me. I guess I'll spend 2012 just like I spent 2011 - shaking my fist at that motherloving butt-over-head move. Then I worked on knee-hook climbs, invert crochet in the air and footlocks in the air. For my grand finale, I attempted one last crossback straddle. Foiled again!! Just you wait, my pretty. In 2012, the crossback straddle will be mine!

Last session with Buffin for 2011. Lots of chest presses, barbells, shoulder presses and core. For our grand finale, I deadlifted 135 lbs, which means when the zombie apocalypse comes, there's a whole new weight class of friends I can save. For the record, the man next to me was only pressing 88 lbs. Buffin told me I am one of the only girls who can "train with any serious weight at this gym." A serious compliment from my trainer is the best Christmas present of all. I started 2011 not being able to climb silks or lift heavy things or run at all, and now I'm going into 2012 as a total powerhouse, kicking *ss, taking names, and robbing banks with my core of steel.
