Harry Potter Fitness Challenge: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups/home/458-hogwarts-castle

Monthly. Ongoing. If you need something to keep you accountable, this group is for you!

We start each 'term' at the beginning of each month, and currently there is no real end date to how many months we will keep it going. People can join at any time, however.

It consists of four separate 'Houses' (with four separate threads) that compete against each other and the results get posted in the Great Hall (a separate thread that all Houses can post in).

The official rules and guidelines are here:

The links to all the Houses and the Great Hall are at the bottom of that blog.

    What a creative idea! I read all 7 books OUT LOUD to my boys, just finishing up last month. I loved the social commentary and humor as much as - or more than - the story itself. I will check out the link you posted.

    I'm not a Harry Potter fan, but sounds interesting to try. :-)

    I'm interested, but how exactly do you join?

    Our group is called Hogwarts Castle. You can join any house you want to (I'm not sure how active Hufflepuff and Slytherin are), just go the the House thread for whichever House you would like to join and I think you can just post on the thread that you'd like to join.

    There are weekly challenges for each House, as Bronwen mentioned. You aren't required to do all parts of the challenge, just do whatever you can - that's why it's a challenge! Then you check in each week. It might seem confusing at first, but it's pretty simple. There's a food challenge each week, there's an exercise challenge each week - and you earn points for each. You also check in with the minutes of exercise you have completed and your weight. I think each House works a little differently. Gryffindor awards weekly Prefect and monthly Quidditch captain.

    You can read the links Bron posted for more info.
