Pilot Games (Oct. 26)

October 11, 2024

Mark your calendars for the event of the semester—The Pilot Games! The Health Holistic and Fitness (UPH2F) club in partnership with Army ROTC will be hosting a fitness competition that will test your endurance, strength, and overall fitness through five different events. These events consist of upper body, lower body, 1.54-mile run, Humvee push/pull, and the final push which will test your team’s ability to work together.

The Pilot Games are for all students, staff/faculty, and surrounding community members. Competitors may recruit their own four-person team, which can be comprised of any four people of any age/gender/etc. OR you may sign up individually and choose the option to be assigned to a team.

This competition will take place at 12 p.m. on October 26 at Pru Pitch

To participate in this event, sign up your team at the link below:

This is a free event and the goal is to challenge teams physically and mentally to build a stronger fitness community on campus. We highly encourage team members to coordinate outfits within their team for team spirit, but all you need to do is just show up in your comfortable workout attire and do your best.

If you have any questions, please contact Larry Yauney (Yauney26@up.edu).

Sign up for the challenge today and get ready to see who has the best team on campus!
