Walking challenge at work

missdaisy79

At work I'm on a consultation group for a walkathon/runathon challenge that is being launched on Monday. It's a team challenge, max 10 people per team, to try and log 2,012 miles by 31 December 2011. That's three months to walk, run, swim, row or ride 2,012miles between all the members of the team. Outside of work mileage counts too, which is good. The plan is to get the people at the hospital that employs me being more aware of how much they walk, and encouraging them to get competitive about it. We've found there's a tremendous competitive spirit in the hospital, we just need to tap into it. We're hoping to be able to give out pedometers to people so that they can log how many steps they've taken at work - 2,000 steps is approximately 1mile. First team to get to 2,012 miles wins! I just hope I can get some people on my team - don't want to be carrying it all on my own. Wish me luck folks!
