Kimball continues to lead in health promotion
After four weeks of healthy eating and exercising, Kimball Tower has maintained its lead in the “eat well. live well. challenge” between Crofts Hall, Kimball and the Educational Opportunity Center.
As of April 18, Kimball participants are leading in both the average number of cups of fruits and vegetables they have eaten each day—4.7 cups—and the average number of steps taken each day—9,847 steps.
EOC is in second place, with an average of 8,969 steps and eaten 4.6 cups of fruits and vegetables.
The figures for Crofts participants are 8,761 steps and 4.4 cups.
The goal of the “eat well. live well. challenge,” organized by Wegmans and sponsored by University Human Resources, is to encourage individuals to move more and increase the amount of fruits and vegetables they consume. Participants use pedometers to count and record the number of steps they take each day and tally the number of cups of fruits and vegetables— they are encouraged to “strive for five”—they eat each day.
Participants record the data online.
