What:
This is a 4-week physical activity challenge open to all SFU staff and faculty in the lead up to Wellness Day on November 16, 2021. The challenge is for people of ALL fitness levels and incorporates all types of activity.
When:
The challenge will run from October 15 to November 12, 2021.
How:
Participants will keep track of their daily active minutes and challenge themselves to do even better! You can use any method to track your minutes - including your phone, fitness watches, apps, and more.
Why:
The Stay Active Challenge is a great way to stay active and encourage one another! There are also prizes available: each person who participates in the challenge will be entered into a draw for one of three GooglePlay book credits. The draw will happen on November 16 during Wellness Day, so we hope you'll join us!
We travelled around Canada!
