NUGENT 10,000KM Walking Challenge 2023

Our Wellbeing Committee organised our NUGENT 10,000KM Walking Challenge for our team across 5 weeks. The initiative is to encourage health and wellbeing, team bonding and family time which has been very successful.

We totalled to an amazing 20,974,687 steps. Our winning team was ‘Worst Pace Scenario’ (very ironic name) with a whooping 2,652,866 steps! They all won Sports Direct Vouchers as no doubt they will need new walking shoes with all the steps totalled!

We find this is a great incentive to encourage lunchtime walks, meetings over a coffee and walk, spending quality time outdoors with family, friends and work colleagues. We have had team members getting their steps through golfing, walking, running, farming, mowing lawns and much more! ⛳🏃🚶‍♀️👟

A bit of fun, but we are quite a competitive bunch! We have had weekly challenges to meet step targets, with prizes along the way.

We raised much needed funds for our chosen charity Tiny Life by each participant paying an entry fee.
