The step count challenge is over!

The challenge was fun and made people aware of how much/little they did move. This often gave motivation to get up and walk around setting personal challenges each day.
The step count challenge is over!
Several teams from IHW recently took part in an 8 week Step Count Challenge. Paths for all, for a happier healthier Scotland.
Congratulations and thanks to all who participated. We had some outstanding results with one clear super walker in particular, Dr Sarah Weeden, RBC was our Step Champion with a grand total of 1,242,971 steps!
