Get Fit - Feel Epic!

As it's my first (proper) post here at Where Are My Knees, I thought I'd arrive with a bang, and also attempt to ingratiate myself with all of our readers - so as such, I come bearing gifts.

Ladies and gents, may I present to you... Get Fit, Feel Epic!


Get Fit, Feel Epic is a kind of collective term for a number of competitions and events I've been wanting to run all over the web in association with my day job, and WAMK feels like a great place to run one - not only have Sarah and the rest of the girls always been amazingly nice to me, but every single commenter and reader I've ever spoken to has also been absolutely awesome.

So, without further ado, let me tell you all about the competition and what you can win!

The Competition
The competition is called Get Fit, Feel Epic, and so it might not surprise you to learn that that's exactly what we want you to tell us about.

We know that keeping fit, losing weight and eating right are important to the community, so all we want you to do is write a quick blog post, telling us all about how getting fitter has changed your life for the better!

We know that losing weight and dieting can be a slog (hell, we've all been there), so sometimes it's nice to stop and think about what you have achieved - and be damn proud of it to!

The Prize
The prize is a pretty good one, especially if you're slightly nerdy like me - it's a Fitbit and a set of Smart Scales!


The Fitbit system is a hi-tech way of tracking your activity levels, weight, BMI, Body Fat and all those other exciting numbers that we care about on an online dashboard- The Zip just requires a quick sync to your computer, and the Aria scales do it all via WiFi - there's even a smartphone app for keeping an eye on your progress while you're out and about.

In Short:
We're able to give away a Fitbit Zip (in a selection of colours) and a set of Aria scales to the person who can write the most interesting, exciting or unusual post about how getting fit has changed (or is changing) their lives. 

All you have to do is:
  • Write your post
  • Pop a link in it back to http://www.moneysupermarket.com (it makes things LOADS easier for me to track, believe me!)
  • Pop a comment below this post with a link to your entry.
The contest will run until Midnight on 31 October, and we'll announce the winner within the following week.

Good Luck!

Chris
