In Brief: February 2

Get the odds in your favor with Lucky Seven Wellness Challenge

Seven’s the lucky number for health and fitness this semester. WellAware has issued the Lucky Seven Wellness Challenge, a seven-week campaign for teams of faculty, staff and students to engage in exercise, healthy eating and relaxation activities.

The challenge will take place Feb. 9-March 27. It’s free for all BGSU faculty, staff and students.

Each week, the teams will be issued seven activities that they will divide up to achieve, from taking a midday walk to packing healthy snacks. For completing them, they receive Lucky Seven tokens, which can be exchanged for prizes at the end of the challenge. Participants can earn additional tokens by logging their exercise minutes. The more tokens earned, the greater the chance of winning the grand prize.

The registration deadline is Friday (Feb. 6). Team captains can register their teams; individual registration is not required.
