About
The ECU Turkey Trot is a free four-week steps challenge for the whole campus. Participants download the BetterYou app, sign up with their ECU email, and connect a phone or watch. Steps count automatically, on campus or at home over the break.
Each week has its own way to win, so the person who logs 25,000 steps a day isn't the only one with a shot:
Week 1: Nov 16 - Nov 22 | Show up | Join and sync steps: entered in the drawing.
Week 2: Nov 23 - Nov 29 | Gobble-proof week | Hit your daily step goals 5 of 7 days.
Week 3: Nov 30 - Dec 6 | Beat your baseline | Average more daily steps than you did in Week 1
Week 4: Dec 7 - Dec 13 | Top stepper | Most total steps across all four weeks.
Prizes are gift cards, in addition to the bolts participants already earn in the app. BetterYou builds and runs the challenge and sends ECU a one-page recap after it ends (participants, total steps, improvement over baseline, winners). ECU's part is getting the word out.
