• The purpose of the March Mayhem Challenge 2024 is to support participants in meeting their physical activity goals and provide support and guidance to make changes for a healthier lifestyle.

• The March Mayhem Challenge is a team competition that will be held March 4 – March 31, 2024.

• March Mayhem is a four-week program. The fitness-based program is composed of teams consisting of three DFAS employees per team. Reported exercise activities translate into activity points, which will accumulate per team, like a basketball score format. Higher intensity activity translates into more points earned—but don’t worry, there are plenty of low-impact and beginner activities also.

• Teams are divided into conferences. Each team plays a virtual basketball game for points against each other for the full four weeks. The top scoring team from each conference is decided based on overall total points (think of it as bracket play).

• The team with the highest total number of activity points earned is the winner. The topscoring team in each conference will earn an Qcen Stainless Steel Juicer Machine. • It is recommended that participants Log in daily and record their physical activity. When you log your activity, we will add your activity points to those of your teammates and compute your standing relative to the other teams in the competition. If you do not have time to enter daily, please try to at least enter activity weekly! (See How to Log Exercise to learn how to log your exercise).

• Exercise will be updated on the dashboard on the MHF Wellness portal every hour on the hour.

• A weekly email will be sent that includes current standings.

• The conferences and how each team is placed into each conference will be determined by Sierra Rankin, Health Promotion Coordinator.
