| Walk and Ride Challenge |
| |
|
| |
The mission of this annual event is to encourage downtown Bethesda employees to realize how easy it is to incorporate walking and exercise into your daily routine when you consider alternative commute modes other than driving alone and sitting in traffic. The Challenge encourages everyone to get out of their car, take transit and get walking. Get fit just by going to work!
Who: All downtown Bethesda based companies and their employees
When: October 10 – October 30, 2011
What You Do: With a pedometer, which we will provide for you and your teammates, you'll track the number of steps you take each day and enter them into our online log. This Challenge tracks walking ONLY. Biking, roller blading, and other forms of exercise are not tracked by pedometer and those activities will not count toward your total step count.
Where: Everywhere! Walk to and from the Metro station, to and from the bus stop, to and from work - and everywhere in between! Walk to a new restaurant for lunch, or if you brought food from home, go out for a long walk instead of working at your desk while you eat. Walking and transit is an ideal combination. You might not live close enough to your job to walk to work. So, ride Metrorail and walk from the Metro station or your bus stop to your workplace.
What You Could Get: Each week, participants walking more than 50,000 steps will be entered into a drawing to win great prizes, including a new iPod! Those walking 25,000-49,000 steps will be entered into a drawing for other great prizes. In addition, there will be occasional scavenger hunts and other ways to win prizes.
The Grand Prize: Each member of the team with the highest average number of logged steps will receive:
- $100 Visa Gift Card
- $50 on a SmarTrip card
