ATG Holds Third Step Challenge

ATG Step Challenge Fall Banner

ATG held its 2019 Pre-Holiday Step Challenge for our staff as part our initiative to support their goals for better health. Walking is wonderfully simple and supports heart health, slows the mental decline associated with aging, and can help us lose weight. Who doesn't want more of those benefits? In our first pre-holiday step challenge, 76 people achieved more that 14.5 million steps. This spring's challenge had 50 participants but still made an impressive showing of nearly 14.3 million steps.

Well Done, Team ATG!

Our third Challenge ran from November 4 - December 1, 2019. Once again at 76 participants, our teams surpassed all past efforts:

  • Week One — ATG teams walked 2,197 miles.
  • Week Two — Team efforts increased and they reached 2,375 miles.
  • Week Three — An impressive showing by all with 2,321 miles.
  • Week Four — Teams made it to 2,242 miles, despite the holiday weekend.

The total of 9,135 miles is the equivalent of walking across the United States from coast to coast and nearly all the way back!
