Spirit running surrounded by text that reads UAA Summer Health ChallengeJoin us for the 2021 UAA Summer Health Challenge! Sign up as an individual, UAA department/office, and student organization or club! Participants will record their steps as individuals or teams on their step trackers of choice! And at the end of the summer (July 31), the most fit UAA office, department, or committee will win the coveted UAA Summer Health Challenge Trophy, while the most fit student organization or club will win $300 toward their organization accounts. Of course, we know that folks LOVE immediate rewards or incentives, so we'll be having weekly and monthly challenges for prizes and bragging rights as well. We've got hammocks, GoPros, Apple Watches, Camelbaks and a whole host of awesome prizes for folks who meet certain weekly goals. Woot woot!

Participants can use multiple devices in the competition, including their own iPhones or Androids (using Google Fit app for free), as well as their Fitbit, Apple Watch, Wear OS by Google, Garmin, withings and Misfit! Wowee zowee!

This year, participants can also join in on the Alaska Adventure component of the challenge. Get prizes and bragging rights by showing off your favorite recipes, your biggest fishing/hunting catch, your favorite workout music and your most revered recreational selfies!

A soft deadline for sign-ups will be Wednesday, May 26, by 5 p.m. Individuals and teams can sign up after May 26, but it just makes it less likely you'll win the cumulative grand prizes. Again, we'll have plenty of weekly and monthly prizes which will make a late submission entirely worth it!
