SCI Smithfield Step Challenge

During the month of April, SCI Smithfield's wellness committee put together a step challenge. This was a fun way for staff at all levels to get involved. Utilizing the app Count It, 32 staff members took part and collectively accrued more than 28,791,000 steps, which equates to more than 13,632 miles. To put this into perspective, the steps Smithfield staff took are equal to walking around the entire continental United States—plus walking another 160 marathons on top of that—in just one month! This challenge helped staff be more aware of their activity, and the competitive nature within them propelled them to increase their daily activity. CO Waterman crushed the competition averaging more than 30,000 steps per day and having approximately 430 miles for the month of April. Staff will continue the challenge in the coming months.
