Flinders is running a Pedometer Team Challenge and invites all staff to participate.

The Challenge involves building a team of four, choosing a global destination and clocking the number of steps taken by each team member to reach that destination.

All registrants get a free pedometer to assist them with the challenge.

To get started, a Team Manager first needs to be nominated.

The Team Manager can register the team at the Pedometer Team Challenge website using the username Flinders17 and the password 4362.

[Please note that Adobe Flash Player will need to be installed first in order to complete the registration process].

The Challenge is designed to encourage healthy behaviours in the workplace and provide the regular exercise necessary to reduce stress, increase energy levels and improve sleep.

It is being run in cooperation with Bupa Wellness.

The registration period has been extended until 20 September 2017, and the Challenge runs from 25 September to 20 October 2017.

Free pedometers are still available for participants from Lien Nguyen at the Flinders’ Work Healthy and Safety Unit, phone 8201 3117, email whs@flinders.edu.au.
