The Australasian Universities 10,000 steps challenge ends on Sunday and I’m pleased to report that the UC Library team is currently heading the leader board on 6,994,251 steps!

Although the challenge ends on Sunday, you can continue to enter your steps until 11.59pm on Monday 30th .

Ka mau te wehi! Give your selves a huge congratulations for your efforts. It’s not always been easy with variable weather and some of us being hit by nasty colds and flus.

Also a massive thanks to Helen for leading our daily walks around campus, during which we’ve watched the gardens bloom into their springtime glory. I’ve really enjoyed chatting to people along the way. If people are keen, we could continue the tradition on a whoever turns up basis, and take turns at leading. Comment below if you have any ideas or suggestions.

I’m away on leave next week, so please could I ask people to return their borrowed pedometers to the Rec Centre. Gary Gin is the contact person.
