Corporate Fit Challenge CRAZE!
It is Corporate Fit Challenge season in Alpena!  Bay Athletic Club kicked off SIX Challenges in January and FIVE so far in February!  That’s over 220 people who are overhauling their fitness and nutrition habits in six weeks.

Things went out with a bang for a handful of Corporate Fit Challenges on Friday night.  Bingham Arts Academy, Long Rapids Fire Department, District Health Department # 4 and the first ever CFC Reunion group celebrated their success with a finale party at the Alpena Mall.

District Health Department # 4 took on their second Corporate Fit Challenge and lost 105 pounds and 74.5 inches.  Rosanne Schultz was the Inchworm and Biggest Loser, shedding 11.75 inches and 20.2 pounds.  Jane Silver was named Challenge Champ for losing the greatest percentage of her body weight, 8.3%.

The eight person group from Bingham Arts Academy lost an average of 6.3 pounds and 5.7 inches per person.  Ben Freeland was the Biggest Loser and Inchworm, losing 13.2 pounds and 9 inches.  Stephanie Fournier lost the greatest percentage of her body weight, 7.1%, and was named the Challenge Champ.

Nineteen people joined on to the Corporate Fit Challenge at the Long Rapids Fire Department.  Together the group lost 233 pounds
and 149.5 inches.  Nathan Thomson won the Inchworm award losing 20 inches.  Terry Bates was the Biggest Loser and Challenge Champ by dropping 29.8 pounds, 11.3% of his body weight.

Nearly 60 former Corporate Fit Challengers signed up for the first-ever Reunion.  The CFC Reunion was designed to keep former challengers on

track and motivated—and it did!  Challengers enjoyed Sunday workouts, camaraderie and coaching from Tracie and Trina.  Some of the biggest numbers came from:

Lisa Krey—10.2 pounds and 9.75 inches
Sarah Jore—11 pounds and 10.5 inches
Ron McDonald—12 pounds and 6.25 inches
Bob Martin—12 pounds and 10.75 inches
James Bruski—16 pounds and 9.75 inches
Eric Precord—19 pounds and 13 inches
