Are you ready to step into a good challenge? Maybe ... Walktober?
Fall is an ideal time for walking-summer temperatures give way to cool, crisp air, and brilliant fall colors paint a landscape inviting us to get out and move. Walktober makes fall fitness even more appealing with fun tracking tools, social features and the option to participate on a team.
If you don't have a fitness tracker that automatically captures your steps, no worries! You can log the minutes you walk, and the challenge website will convert time into steps. If you're logging your time, you will need to manually add these minutes after logging into the Walktober Challenge website.
Registration is now open at https://usgwellbeing.walktober.com and ends Oct. 6. The challenge begins Oct. 1 and ends Oct. 31.
You can start logging activity Tuesday, Oct. 1. All teams must be formed by Sunday, Oct. 6. This friendly competition will end Thursday, Oct. 31, but you can continue to record activity until the team scores freeze on Saturday, Nov. 2.
This is a friendly competition across the USG. There might be a winning institution that gets to claim the traveling trophy.
Bobcats, let's get moving! Register now and join us in October as we crush this year's Walktober Challenge.
