Early results show that many teams have sprinted out of the blocks in the UNMC Walks to the Olympics challenge.<\/p>\n

In just a few days, several teams already have amassed more than 400,000 steps. <\/p>\n

The first rankings of the challenge will be published in next week’s Wellness Wednesday. <\/p>\n

Need a team?<\/B><\/p>\n

There are several walkers on campus who would like to join a team. <\/p>\n

If you are walker in search of a team or a team who would like additional walkers, send an email to cfhladmin@unmc.edu<\/a>, with subject lines of “Walker in need of team” or “Team wants walkers.”<\/p>\n

Still time to form teams<\/B><\/p>\n

Also, keep in mind that you can start walking teams at any point during the challenge. <\/p>\n

Teams are limited to 20 participants. Download a team registration form<\/a> or call the Center for Healthy Living front desk at 402-559-5254 to have one emailed, faxed or routed to you through inter-campus mail. <\/p>\n

Send completed forms to cfhladmin@unmc.edu<\/a>, via fax at 402- 559-9609 or by campus courier to the Center for Healthy Living, ZIP 5530.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
