Stepping out: Monash staff members Ann Tapley, Jaswin Bal, and John Whale.

For the past five weeks, more than 2000 Monash staff stepped out for better health, participating in the 10,000 Steps Challenge.

More than 245 teams from across all campuses counted their steps along the challenge, walking a virtual route that visited all Monash campuses.

The Monash team that completed the challenge first was the Step Warriors team, from Monash South Africa. The All Sorts team from the Gippsland campus recorded the highest number of steps.

A celebration event was held last week at the Peninsula, Caulfield and Clayton campuses with special guest speaker Dr John Tickell.

Congratulations to all staff who participated in the Challenge and remember to keep walking 10,000 steps a day.
