Movement is one key component of our physical wellness, and one of the simplest ways to move is by walking. Walk with us in this four-week challenge where we’ll explore the benefits of simple movement as a team. 

Teams: Teams may consist of 3-10 participants, and will compete in one of three leagues based on your target number of steps you’d like to achieve throughout the challenge (see registration form for league information). If you need help finding a team, contact us at wellrec-wellnessoutreach@ncsu.edu and we will help!
