Calling all Faculty and Staff – mark your calendars for February 1st, the start of the 13th annual GO MOVE Challenge in which AJCU institutions compete to determine which is the most active school!
Let’s Bring the Plaque Back to SCU this Year!!!
Challenge Details
Help SCU win by recording your moderate to vigorous physical activity minutes on the GoMoveChallenge.org website throughout the month. The more you are physically active, the better the chance your university has of winning any of these titles:
- The university with the most minutes.
- The university with the highest average number of minutes per participant.
- New this year: Shout outs to participating universities with the highest average minutes per participant, categorized by employee size: large, medium, or small.
While the challenge emphasizes the importance of physical wellness, it also reminds us to connect with our colleagues, our university, and the entire AJCU as we work towards a common goal. Please share your team building pictures and stories throughout the month on the challenge’s Facebook and Instagram pages with the hashtag #GoMoveChallenge.
- The first75 participants to reach 420 minutes will receive a GO MOVE Challenge Shirt for you to wear throughout the month of February.
- All participants who log 840 minutes or more during February 1st-28th will have their name put into drawing for a Fitbit Charge 6!
