This is getting good...


We're very proud of our supportive environment. Not only do our Summer Challenge teams have members that are supporting each other and encouraging each other to meet at American Family for the next work out, but all of the participants have really been pooling together with that sense of camaraderie and being in this together.

So of course, we had to raise the stakes.

It was announced this week that the prize for having the best Team Weight Loss at the end of the summer was a limo ride for the entire team to dinner at Penny Lane Pub. (Even healthy eaters get cheat meals, right?) And then, it was announced that teams would get the chance to get Bonus Pounds by winning mini-contests over the summer that would count towards their total team weight loss amount. Well, the gloves have come off.

Our first Bonus Pounds Challenge is this coming Monday night at the Richmond Volleyball Club, where the team with the most wins of the night will receive the first Bonus Pounds and will be well on their way to that limo celebration in September. It's gonna be Darwin's Revenge vs. the Flaming Albatrosses in a serious Galapagos smackdown. Balls will be flyin'. At least one of the ComedySportz players is going to cry. And another will leave with a bandaged appendage, but I won't say what. Or who.

Weight loss is a serious sport, folks. Especially when a limo is involved.
