Trekking the Trail with Lewis and Clark

by

Jerry Miller

The Wellness Department will be kicking off this promotion February 10. It will be a 10-week program. Three person teams will total up their activity minutes and then convert those minutes to miles. The miles will then be used to track your progress by symbolically following the trail of Lewis and Clark through North Dakota. (What a fun bunch they have over there at the Wellness Center!!) There will be some get togethers and some prize give aways.

Keep in mind any athletic activity counts. (Almost any.) So this will work for the walkers, racquetball players, weight lifters etc.

We will be encouraging participation by ITSS staff so look for a poster or two, some more mail and anything else that we can think of to enlist your participation. We will endeavor to make reporting your numbers simple. So find two other people and form a team.

Reasons to Participate

• When you ask your partner, "Do these pants make my butt look big." Your partner responds, "Your butt is big!!"
• You really could use two new friends.
• You always wanted to hang out with the cool kids.
• You would like to demonstrate your team building skills.
• It's February in North Dakota. What else is there to do?
• You don't want to feel like a kid again, but you're tired of feeling 95 years old.
