Hi,

I just did my first exercise with Jacob (my 8 year old) and when I saw what I needed to do to set him up as my partner, I figured I better blog it so those of you with non IFC members can setup your partners. First thing is to visit the Sep Parti page and see if your team is setup.

 Like many of you, my team was there, but there was a blank where Jacob was supposed to be.  That means that I entered him as my buddy when I was setting up the teams, but that he does not have an IFC account.  So the first thing you need to do is if your partner is not a member of IFC, then they need an account.

Just Log-out (You have to log-out to run the registration)

Hit the Join Now button

Complete the Registration Form

Then email me at jim@vitalif.com and tell me to add them as your partner. 

Now, if you have a partner that does not have an email address, do the following.  Go ahead and register them, but make up an email address, I did this fo Jacob.  I used jacob@vitalif.com.  Since you won't get an email confirm, I'll need to validate them manually.  So send me an email and I'll validate their account and send you their password and also link them to your team.

As you as you get your partnered registered as an IFC member, we can take care of the rest. 

Now, here's how to add a run.  I have an Ipod and Jacob does not (much to his chagrin)  I do my exercise normally, and upload my run.  Then I write down (or copy) the run id.  I log-on as Jacob, using his account and then pick My Stats, Clone Run, I enter (or paste) in the run id, and the system takes the run I just did, and adds it to Jacob account too.  It's that easy.

Comment back if you have questions, or email me for assistance.
