We wanted to participate to the Health and Wellbeing week with the Activity challenge that was a success last year as well. The aim of the week is to motivate people to move and be active in their day to day life.
ESN Vaasa's Activity Challenge
From 3.-9.5.2021, ESN sections will organize hundreds of events all over Europe to promote a healthy lifestyle among international students. This one-week initiative consists of activities focusing on sports, nutrition, responsible partying, and mental health.
To get you all involved, ESN Vaasa is organizing an activity challenge where the goal is to collect as many active minutes as possible. You can be active, for example, by going to the gym, walking, running, biking, dancing, or any activity that involves moving your body in some way; the sky is your limit! At the end of the week, the person with the most active minutes wins an awesome prize!
To participate, you have to register for the challenge in the Stridekick app (further details below):
1. Click: https://link.stridekick.com/join?groupCode=M8N8J4, preferably from your phone. The link will redirect you to your phone's app store to download Stridekick.
2. Follow the registering steps of the app and go to "My challenges" to confirm that you were successfully registered for the challenge (if this is not happening, just send us a message, and we will help out!).
3. Register for the challenge (steps 1 & 2) latest by Sunday 2.5.2021 night to participate!
The app syncs with your fitness tracker's app (Fitbit, Garmin, Polar, etc.) and gets your active minutes from there. If you don't have a fitness tracker, no worries! Just download the Google Fit app to your phone and log your active minutes manually (you can choose from a list of hundreds of activities)!
Don't hesitate to contact us if you need any help with the registering process or any questions. As always, everyone is welcome!
Note: we are only able to deliver the prize for the winner in Vaasa. If you're not currently in Vaasa but still want to participate, feel free to join just for fun! It's never bad to move our bodies anyways.
Let's get moving!
