For this goal, all Longwood students are required to take PHED 101. This class was definitely something I was not looking forward to taking, simply because I did not want to wear a Fitbit 24/7, but in the end it was very interesting to me. Over half of our grade was based on our Fitbit steps, and we had to get 10,000 steps a day to “pass”. This gave me an awesome excuse to get outside and walk, go to the gym, or do any sort of activity. I love exercise and thought this was a really fun way to ensure that the students of Longwood remain healthy and active.

Attached is a sample of what we had to do every 2 weeks for this class. We had to log our Fitbit reports, and reflect on our activity/step count for each week.
