Description:

Welcome to the First Reserve 2020 Wellness Program Step Challenge!

Each challenge will run for 1 week. At the conclusion of the week, the participant with the top recorded steps will receive a healthy snack box from “Snack Nation”.

 

Instructions:

Activity tracking devices such as Fitbit, Garmin, Apple, etc. are required to record the number of daily steps taken.   The totals of those steps are then compared against one another and a real-time leaderboard is made available.

  1. Log onto www. challengerunner.com or download the challenge runner APP on your phone
  2. Enter username and temporary password (username is FR email and temporary password is Summer2020!)
  3. Once logged in you will see the Challenge Log page. A trackers button appears. Click the Trackers
  4. The User Profile dialog will appear. Click the Authorizelink next to the fitness tracking device you would like to use.
  5. Depending on the device selected, an Authorization page is displayed. Fill in the Id and password for your device. Click the Allow button if it is presented to allow ChallengeRunner to collect data from your device manufacturer’s website on your behalf. NOTE: If you are already logged into the tracker website such as fitbit.com or garmin.com, you may not be presented with a login page and simply be authorized with no further input.
  6. The ChallengeRunner website will display a message stating Authorization Successful.

Notes:

  • It is important to note that data is pulled from the tracker’s website such as fitbit.com or garmin.com. Therefore, it is very possible that the user has 10,000 steps on their device and showing less or no steps on ChallengeRunner. In this case the user should sync their device and log into the tracker’s website and check their steps.
  • Do not Authorize more than one device at a time. If you do, the data feeds from each will overwrite one another.
  • Google Fit, Apple Health, and Samsung Health can take in data from multiple sources. Therefore, the data received from any of these “trackers” may not be what is expected. Remove any sources you are not using to get more accurate data.
  • ChallengeRunner can accept data from the Apple Health and Samsung Health apps; however, they are different from other sources. Instead of ChallengeRunner collecting data every 15 minutes, data is sent whenever the ChallengeRunner iPhone or ChallengeRunner Android app is opened.
