individuals who completed the MOST classes during the triathlon, so
if you’re finished with your check points, keep working
through Sunday!
All participants who complete all of the checkpoints by
December 4th will receive a T-shirt!
When you are finished with the triathlon, please turn in your
card (or multiple cards, each with your name on them and stapled
together) no later than Wednesday, December
14th.
- Please turn your card in to the front desk of the
facility where you would like to pick up your T-shirt in
January).
- Please write the following information on your card:
your name, your email and your T-shirt size.
The T-shirts will be available late January/early
February at whichever facility you left your completed
card.

For classes that fall in more than 1
category, you must pick one category for which it will count, as
each class can only count one time. You may choose the other
category next time.
How it
works:
Register between September 12th-September 28th.
The
registration form can be uploaded here. You may leave completed
registration forms with your instructor, at the front desk, or
email instructions are included on the form.
Pick up a training log from either MAC or Hemenway, whichever is
most convenient for you. Training logs will be available by
Monday, September 26th.
Beginning October 3rd, attend group exercise classes for
credit! At the end of each class you attend, bring your
training log to your instructor and they will mark your log.
Be sure to specify how you want your class to count, if it falls
into more than one category. Make sure you satisfy all of the
mandatory requirements right away, before you begin working on your
electives. Participants who fill their training log can pick up a
2nd log at the front desk.
At the end of the program (December
4th), turn in your completed training log. Please turn in
logs no later than December 9th, and collect your prizes!
Please contact Kerry Smith
(Hemenway) at ptrainer@fas.harvard.edu or Mike Dingley (MAC) at
macpt@fas.harvard.edu for additional information.
