Thank you to everyone who has signed up to the Move More Workplace Challenge and helping us achieve 2nd place so far on the Sheffield Organisations leaderboard with 75244 active minutes! Further congratulations go to the Facilities Directorate for striding into the lead with 25735 active minutes in our internal workplace challenge.
There is of course plenty of time to get involved and help your team claim victory. Simply create an account and join a University team (teams are split into faculties and directorates) by visiting: https://challenge.movemore.co/shu, download the app on your smartphone by searching for ‘Move More Sheffield’, login and start moving. You can join more than one team if you wish and your Move More Minutes will be recorded against each team you’re part of.
If, for whatever reason, the app doesn’t currently work on your phone, you can still take part. Create an account on the Move More website to enter your activities and these will be converted into ‘active minutes’ for you and your team. The app is now available for older iPhones. You can also add your steps for previous days on the Move More dashboard and record any other sporting activities in step form. The app counts 100 steps as 1 active minute, so if you swim for 30 minutes just add 3000 steps to your total. If you swim for 60 minutes, then add 6000 steps.
Hallam Active also has the following activities running across the month for the Move More challenge. All sessions are £1 and are led by a Student Sport Activator and are open to students, staff and the general public. Book onto a sessions at a Hallam Active reception or call 0114 225 3000.
