Get Moving during Walktober

St. John Fisher University’s annual Walktober fitness challenge offers employees the perfect opportunity to enjoy the fall foliage and crisp autumn air while encouraging movement and wellness!

Taking place throughout the month of October, Walktober prioritizes movement and fitness of any kind. This wellness program has a motivating team competition, an interactive message board, helpful resources, interesting articles, recipes, and more.

Joining with others striving for similar goals helps with accountability — and doubles the chances of success. So, start or join a team with members close by, across the hall, or around the world. The most important thing is to recruit those who are motivated to be active and healthy. All participants will receive an incentive gift, and other incentives will be offered throughout the month.

Once registered, employees can log their activity through the web tracker or the mobile app each day and it will convert any exercise into steps, so all physical activity counts. And what better way to exercise than to do it alongside colleagues?

There are some rules: Teams consist of four to five members. Participants can only be on one team. Participants can create their own teams and invite others, or participants can send a request to join a team.

Walktober registration is now open, so sign up today! For any questions regarding Walktober at Fisher, email humanresources@sjf.edu.
