THRIVE 30-day Walking Challenge

Be inspired and empowered to incorporate more activity into your daily routine, especially during your work/school day. When you sign up for the THRIVE 30-day walking challenge, you will receive a walking plan and tracking log. You will also receive a stretching guide and invites to weekly Zoom drop-in sessions for quick stretch sessions at your desk. At the end of the challenge, submit your walking log to the Center for Healthy Living (CFHL) to receive your prize. This program is free and open to members of the UNMC and Nebraska Medicine community, which includes students and employees as well as members of the CFHL. Participants do not need to be CFHL members to join the challenge. Sorry, registration for the THRIVE 30-day Walking Challenge is now closed.
