Get ready to move, compete and have fun all year long with the Seasons in Motion Movement Challenge!  This 3-part challenge keeps your movement momentum going through the whole year, with a new challenge each season (semester) and an overall championship at the end.

Inspired by 91²Ö¿â's Exercise is Medicine on Campus (EIM-OC0 initiative, this challenge is built on a simple idea:  Movement Is Medicine.  Regular physical activity can improve physical health, reduce stress, boost mood, increase energy, and support overall well-being.  The good news?  Movement doesn't have to happen in a gym to make a difference.

Participate as an individual and/or form a team with friends, classmates or coworkers.  Students and faculty/staff will compete in separate divisions, giving everyone a chance to earn points, climb the leaderboard, and celebrate their progress.

The best part of this challenge?  There's no "right" way to move.  Walk to class or walk the dog, hit the gym, mow the lawn, ride your bike, dance, shovel snow, garden, take the stairs or explore the outdoors...because every minute of movement counts.

Whether you're looking to improve your health, relieve stress, connect with others, or simply move more throughout your day, the Seasons in Motion Movement Challenge encourages you to find the activities you enjoy and make movement part of your daily routine. After all, when movement is medicine, every step, stretch, and active moment is a step toward a healthier, happier you.
