Fall into 5K + 5 - Sept 3-17
September 10 at 10 - 5+1 Challenge πͺ
If youβve been moving with us most days, keep that momentum going. And if youβre brand new to Marco or have never joined us before, September is a great time to start.
Why 10 at 10? Because stepping away from your desk for just 10 minutes can help you move your body, reset your mind, boost your energy and connect with coworkers before jumping back into your day.
Weβre in our 9th straight month of 10 at 10 and this month, weβre adding a little challenge:
β
Join 10 at 10 at least 5 times
π€ Invite 1 coworker who has never joined before
Thatβs it! Help us keep growing this daily wellbeing habit and bring someone new along for the fun.
10 minutes. 10:00 AM. Every weekday.
Come when you can. Move however you can. Weβd love to see you! π
