Week 2 Competitions
Team Photo Competition
Week 2 competition is the ever-popular team photo competition, and the theme of the competition is ‘Green’.
Be as creative as you can this week both in terms of the ‘Green’ theme and also making sure to include as many of your teammates in your photo, whether you are out walking together or dressing up for St. Patrick’s Day.
Teams that show the most impressive effort will be awarded an extra special VIP Marchathon Goodie Bag for their entire Team.
Submit your Green-themed Team photo via the Competition Entry Form by 2pm, Tuesday 19th March.

To help get you motivated for Week 2, we’ve increased the weekly team target by enough steps to encourage you to take that one extra journey by foot. Teams that reach this week’s weekly Team average of 40,000 steps will go into a Prize Draw. This Team average equates to approximately 5,700 steps per person per day.
