District 5 employees head ITD's 10-week fitness challenge

District 5 employees ran circles around their colleagues from throughout the state this year – or perhaps they could have, judging from final results in the annual ITD fitness challenge.

More than half of the District 5 participants (51 percent) completed the 10-week event. District 1 was a distant second with 39 percent, followed closely by District 2 (37 percent) and District 4 (33 percent). Districts 3 and 6 finished with 26 percent and 24 percent completion rates.

In recognition of Idaho’s century of flight, the theme chosen for this year’s fitness challenge was 2010 Fly Idaho.

The multi-disciplinary consortium of Bridge, Right of Way, Highway Safety and Public Transportation, emerged on top of the Headquarters competition with a 77 percent completion rate. Its leader was Patty Fish, who recorded 113.3 hours of exercise, according to chief scorekeeper Pauline Davis of the ITD wellness committee.

Ironically, the Headquarters team with the lowest percentage of completion – the Annex – included the individual with more hours than any other employee – Dianna Hoffecker logged 350 hours of exertion.

In extra-curricular competition, ITD employees emerged ahead of those in the Federal Highway Administration, completing an average of 96 hours compared with 85 for FHWA.
