Live from the 2016 Sports Status Survey Results Press Release ‒ "Initiative, Enjoyment, and Enthusiasm" Loving Taiwan iSports
Our nation has maintained a regularly exercising population exceeding 80% for the past 9 years starting back in 2008. The promotion of sports policies has evolved from a micro focus on improving the health of each individual to the macro level of social environment as a whole. The Sports Administration's updated iSport Mid-range Plan continues to promote this vision with "initiative, enjoyment, and enthusiasm for sports." In order to gain a deeper understanding of the implementation of these Sport for All policies, the Sports Administration conducted an annual Sports Status Survey. This Survey provided statistical data to gauge the public's participation in sports and exercise and enabled us to compare the Sport for All promotion and implementation results among various counties and cities nationwide as well as different demographic groups.
The following are the key results from the 2016 Survey:
1) The regularly exercising population remained at above 80% with a 0.4% increase (achieving 3 criterion reached 33% and achieving 2 criterion reached 35.7% for a total of 68.7%, a 0.4% increase over 2015) in achieving at least 2 of the 333 standard criterion (3 times per week for at least 30 minutes with an intensity producing deep respiration and perspiration). These results clearly demonstrated that our nation's promotion of Sport for All policies have been effective.
2) Women's regularly exercising population increased by 1.3% over 2015, clearly demonstrated that our women's exercise promotional efforts have been effective.
3) The public mainly participated in outdoor recreational exercises (82.5%) with the indoor exercise percentage increasing by 3.1% over 2015.
4) A total of 65.2% of the public said that having an Exercise Enterprise Certification Mark would increase their favorable opinion of a company. A more detailed demographic breakdown shows higher levels of favorability among women (68.6%), 55-59 year olds (76.5%), and the regularly exercising population (61.7%), while a cross analysis of the 13-17 year-old regularly exercising population (100%) showed a unanimous increase in favorability.

105年運動現況調查成果發表記者會 自發樂活愛運動，幸福有感i臺灣
自97年以來已連續九年維持八成以上的高運動參與比例。運動政策推展目的已從較微觀的個人健康促進提升至更宏觀的社會環境層次，這也是體育署新一期中程計畫「運動i臺灣」推動「自發、樂活、愛運動」的願景。為充分瞭解全民運動推展各項政策的執行情形，教育部體育署進行「運動現況調查」，以量化數據具體呈現國人運動情形，並比較國內各縣市的全民運動推展狀況與執行成果。
105年調查的重要結果如下：
一、參與運動人口穩健維持8成以上，達333(每周3次、每次30分鐘、運動強度達會喘及流汗程度)標準「2項」以上的運動人口比例成長0.4%(3項均達成者33%；達成2項者35.7%，總計68.7%，較104年成長0.4%)，顯現我國全民運動政策的推展，已有一定成效。
二、女性規律運動的比例較2015年提升1.3%，顯示女性運動的宣導有所成效。
三、民眾主要的運動項目多以戶外休閒運動(82.5%)為主，從事室內運動的比例較2015年上升3.1%。
四、有65.2%的民眾會對得到運動企業認證的公司提升好感度，其中以女性(68.6%)、55-59歲(76.5%)、規律運動者(61.7%)表示好感度會增加的比例較高，經交叉分析13至17歲有規律運動的民眾(100%)表示會提升好感。

Let's Run, It's Fun! Run Together For Happiness and Health
In our efforts to promote the SH150 Plan, in 2015 the Sports Administration began promoting the enjoyable and easy-to-do Run for Fun Plan as a means of encouraging students to participate in "fun runs, open a health savings deposit, make regular deposits, and accumulate mileage." In addition to animated maps showing running routes on a virtual tour around the world (including Taiwan round-island touring routes and around the world traveling routes), we have designed the "Run Piggy Bank" mileage registration platform and running module that offered lottery prizes for gifts such as amusement park tickets. Our goal is to motivate students whom have never developed an interest for running to get out there and try it and gradually cultivate regular exercise habits along the way.
In 2016, the Sports Administration continued its collaboration with the John Tung Foundation to promote the "Four Seasons Fun Run ‒ Run Taiwan's Hundred Hills" activity. This activity integrated Taiwan's unique geographical features and encouraged students to explore the hilly terrain and natural beauty by virtually running in the mountains. The Autumn Maple Forest stage has already concluded and its destinations were Pintian Mountain, Tao Mountain, Chiyou Mountain, Nenggao Mountain, Snow Mountain East Peak, Kalaye Mountain, and Xiluan Mountain (an accumulated total height of 22,829 m or about 115 laps around a 200 m track). A total of 13,270 students in Taiwan took on this challenge.
Statistical data showed that in 2016 an average of more than 30,000 students participated in the "Run Piggy Bank" platform. In 2016, students accumulated twice as much running mileage compared to 2015, recording an increase from 18 km per month up to 36 km per month with each student running an average of 4.5 km farther per week! That means if you take the average time of 4.5 minutes needed to run 800 meters, this is equivalent to an increase of at least 25 minutes per week of exercise time!
It is hoped that parents and teachers take advantage of these resources and programs provided by the Sports Administration and the John Tung Foundation to encourage and also accompany their children and students exercise. Together, let’s make running a part of daily life for students by accumulating running mileage and virtually traversing Taiwan's mountains.

跑步，可以很好玩！一起快樂跑步，儲蓄健康
為使SH150政策順利推展，體育署於104年起以樂趣化及簡單易行的方式推動大跑步計畫，鼓勵學生「零存整付，累計里程，快樂跑步，儲蓄健康」，除以動畫地圖虛擬環遊世界的跑步路線(包括臺灣環島路線圖、環遊世界路線圖等)，設計「跑步大撲滿」里程數登錄平臺及跑步運動模組，更結合遊樂園券等獎品的抽獎活動，成功吸引原本不愛跑步的同學開始嘗試跑步，逐漸養成規律運動的習慣。
體育署於105年度持續與董氏基金會合作推動「樂跑四季-Run遊臺灣百岳」活動，結合臺灣現有的地形特色，鼓勵同學們以跑步的方式認識臺灣特色山岳。本活動秋季楓林階段已經結束，本次的活動目標包括品田山、桃山、池有山、能高山、雪山東峰、喀拉業山、西巒大山(以山岳垂直高度換算，共2萬2,829公尺，200公尺操場115圈)，全臺灣共有1萬3,270名學生挑戰成功。
依據「跑步大撲滿」的統計數據，105年度每月平均有超過3萬人次的同學使用「跑步大撲滿」，且105年同學們的跑步里程數與104年同期相比，從平均每月約18公里提升兩倍至36公里，平均每人每週增加4.5公里的跑跑距離！若以跑步800公尺需要4.5分鐘的時間計算，相當於每週增加至少25分鐘的運動時間！
希望家長、老師們可以多利用體育署與董氏基金會提供的資源與方案，鼓勵及陪伴孩子們一同運動，以跑步累計里程的方式征服臺灣山岳，並將跑步融入學生的日常生活。

Australian Rio Olympics Chef de Mission Visited Taiwan ‒ Sharing Olympic Experiences and Creating New Exchanges for the Future
Chef de Mission for Australia at the Rio Olympics Ms. Kitty Chiller visited Taiwan from December 1 to 2 to serve as a lecture speaker at the International Forum on Development of Sports Medicine. On the 1st, she was accompanied by representatives from the Chinese Taipei University Sports Federation (CTUSF) on a visit to the Sports Administration where she was received by Deputy Director General Shui-wen Wang. During the meeting, Ms. Chiller shared her experiences participating in the Olympics and exchanged ideas regarding bilateral sports exchanges between the two nations in the future.
At the International Forum on Development of Sports Medicine, Ms. Chiller shared the process of forming and heading an Olympic delegation and explained that Australia is the only other nation in the world besides Greece that has never missed the Olympic Games. The Australian Olympic Committee spent AUD20 million (about NT$500 million) for their delegation to participate in the Rio Olympics, sent 422 athletes to compete in 26 sports with a total of 800 members including coaches and other staff. The Australian team had, among the top 5 largest delegations participated at the Rio Olympics, won 8 gold, 11 silver, and 10 bronze medals with a total of 29 medals and ranked 10th place overall.
During Ms. Chiller's afternoon visit to the Sports Administration, she mentioned how much she is looking forward to 2017 Taipei Universiade and hopes she has the opportunity to come watch this major sports event. She was also considering coming to Taiwan prior to the 2020 Tokyo Olympics for training exchanges. Deputy Director General Wang said that in recent years, the implementation of our nation's New Southbound Policy has focused on Australia as one of our main goals for promoting exchanges. On 2016 October 20, our nation's CTUSF signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Australian University Sport in hopes of gaining more experiences through bilateral exchanges in the future as the two nations grow and develop together.
