Starting January 5th, Human Resources is kicking off a 6‑week walking challenge that runs right into Heart Health Awareness Month. This is your chance to shake off the winter blues, build healthy habits, and have some fun along the way.
- Join solo if you like to track your own progress.
- Form a team with coworkers or friends for extra motivation.
- Weekly themes & challenges and drawings for prizes
Whether you’re walking indoors, braving the cold outside, or pacing the hallway between meetings, every step counts.
Miles walked will be logged by employees on HR’s Wellness Challenge portal. All participants can join the Microsoft Teams Channel where they can utilize educational resources, opportunities for connection with colleagues, and some friendly competition.
Drawings for prizes will be held on a weekly basis and at the end of the challenge.
The challenge will take place from Monday, January 5th through Friday, February 13th.
