First week of our Fitbit Challenges begins, plus a new way to win!

Our Inheritance Cycle Fitbit Community kicked off with a bang, adding nearly 200 members to our ranks within the first few days! So far this month, community members walked 15,021,000 steps, totaling 6,500 miles – the equivalent of walking from coast to coast across the United States… twice!

To help better involve those who aren’t able to compete in the top three slots, we’re going to be adding one random giveaway each week. Any member of the Fitbit community is eligible to win! The random giveaway winner will be announced on the same day as the “top three” winners for the prior week.

Head on over to our announcement post for the full details on how the community works and how to win. Already have a Fitbit? Join the community!

Today marks the kickoff of our first weekly competition! Our first monthly competition will begin on March 1st. You can follow the current rankings in our group on the public leaderboard!

February, Weekly #1: February 13th – February 19th (ends at 11:59pm EST)
February, Weekly #2: February 20th – 26th (ends at 11:59pm EST)
February/March, Weekly #3: February 27th – March 5th (ends at 11:59pm EST)

This month’s weekly prizes will be an autographed Inheritance Cycle bookplate and Eragon movie bookmark! These prizes will be awarded to the top three performers each week (based on the publicly available leaderboard), with a fourth going to a randomly selected participant. You may only win one weekly prize per month.

Fitbit devices are also available through other retailers and directly from Fitbit’s website.
