Start your sneakers! ATN Corporate Challenge

Take a good look around your campuses in the coming weeks. You may notice your colleagues with a decidedly marked spring in their step for commencing this month each ATN has a team vying for the prize of the ATN Hall of Fame – Most Active University. Participating in the Global Corporate Challenge, a global team based competition designed to increase fitness and wellbeing, teams have been nominated from seven ATN working groups with the challenge of walking at least 10,000 steps a day for 16 weeks. (To give you an idea of what confronts them the average worker walks around 3,500 steps a day!)

And, not to be left lagging, the ATN Vice Chancellors have also risen to the challenge. Of course all these teams will need to be at the top of their game if they are to compete with the ATN Secretariat team, who have been in training now for some weeks. We will keep you posted as to progress in coming editions. For more information about the Global Corporate Challenge go to Get the world moving
