Hello fellow competitors. I would like to invite you to additional competition during our challenge. Of course it has been consulted with our organiser 
The competition would be about measuring our level of physical activity (by counting steps taken throughout a day) and therefore motivating us to move more and lose even more weight.
Prerequisite to participate is possesing ONLY ONE of the following:
- iPhone or Android phone (with installed free Moves app)
- Fitbit device
- Jawbone device
- Withings Pulse
So as you see – almost anyone is able to join.
The app / webpage we would use is called https://matchup.io/ . It’s currently in beta, but works fine (tested it myself). You cannot register on your own, but I can sent you an invite as I’m already a member.
How it would work exactly:
„Matchup treats your competition like a real sports league. That means you'll be matched up against a new opponent every day.” – which looks as below:
We can check our current standing all the time:
There are other cassifications also:
Or
There is also a message board where we can additionally motivate each other or boast about our achievements;)
I think that the competition could start on 5th April so everyone would have time to join and it would last to the end of this challenge.
To join I need you to send me a pm with your e-mail adress, so I can invite you – please register with mfp name, so we would know who is who;) Competition will only consist of this challenge participants.
I’m open to your questions / suggestions of course.
