Various locations around campus

FREE to all employees!!

Thanks to good weather, the walk will take place as scheduled. See you there!

University employees are invited to celebrate National Employee Health and Fitness Day on Wednesday, May 21, 2008 by getting out for a walk. The Employee Wellness Center is challenging U.D. employees to walk as many miles as they can and report their miles to the Wellness Center. The goal is to accumulate a total of 500 miles walked by employees on this day. Employees who report their miles to the Wellness Center by Tuesday, May 27th will be eligible for a prize drawing of a walker’s gift basket.

Employees may walk a route of their choice, or pick from a list of walking routes on the Newark, Dover or Lewes campuses. They may then download and mail in a walker's form to be eligible for the prize drawing.

Employees may also register to participate in a free walk around The Green (about 1 mile). The walk will step off from the fountain at Magnolia Circle in front of the Morris Library at 12:15 p.m. Pre-registration for the walk is preferred so enough bottled water can be made available. Employees who attend the walk will also receive their choice of a shoe wallet or Wellness polycarbonate water bottle.

Register at www.udel.edu/healthyu for the Employee Fitness Walk. If you have any questions when you register, please let us know. (831-8388).

In case of questionable weather, we will post a notice on our website at 11:00 a.m. (www.udel.edu/wellness). If the weather is bad, the walk will be cancelled.
