Move Your Way (Virtually) Across America

Lace up those shoes, do a good stretch and get going (figuratively) across the country – Thrive Across America is back for San Diego County employees!

What does this mean for you? More motivation to move, whether it’s jogging, swimming, surfing, rollerblading, or even yoga.

Employees who want to participate in the annual program can sign up individually or in teams. Participants exercise at least 30 minutes a day and then log the activity online. Each bit of exercise will push you farther along the virtual route from Maine to Hawaii.

“The program is great for health and camaraderie,” said William Erese, wellness program coordinator. “Plus, it’s fun, friendly competition.”

Registration for Thrive Across America is now open, and closes Aug. 8, but teams and individuals can start logging their 30-minute daily activity on Aug. 5. The competition ends Sept. 29.

Erese reminded employees that this is one of the activities they must participate in to qualify for the end-of-the-year opportunity drawing for the beach cruiser bikes. All participants will receive prizes. Last year, more than 1,600 employees competed in the program.
