Time flies when you’re having fun, and the annual UB Step Challenge is the healthiest fun you can have this April.
This year’s Step Challenge, sponsored by the School of Public Health and Health Professions, marks 10 years of putting our best feet forward. To celebrate, the challenge features more prizes than ever, including awards for participants’ social media posts in creative categories.
As ever, this free challenge taking place April 1-30 is open to anyone in the UB and Western New York communities, encouraging participants to stay active, connect with friends and colleagues, and get outside for some fresh air.
A new highlight of this year’s challenge is a partnership with Explore Buffalo for walks throughout the community during April. Explore Buffalo offers dozens of tours and other opportunities to discover Buffalo’s great architecture, history and neighborhoods. Step Challenge participants can take part in a series of tours just for us at a special cost of $12 each.
And don’t be surprised to see a few Explore Buffalo prizes for lucky winners during the challenge.
Registration is open, so join solo or with a team, and celebrate 10 years of getting our walk on!
