Go Move Challenge Final Recap 2023

The 11th Annual Go Move Challenge starts on Feb. 1, 2023.

Join your colleagues on the Go Move Challenge to compete with other Jesuit Universities across the country for the trophy!

Human Resources is excited to announce Seattle University's participation in the 11th annual Go Move Challenge from February 1st to 28th! To register for the Go Move Challenge, please visit https://gomovechallenge.org, and click the yellow “Log In/Register” button at the top of the page. 

Throughout February, faculty, and staff record their minutes of intentional physical activity that gets their heart pumping to determine which Jesuit institution is the most active. Although “physical activity” can mean different things to different people, to stay consistent, we are defining physical activity as “planned, structured, and repetitive bodily movement done to improve or maintain one or more components of physical fitness.”

At the heart of this friendly competition is an opportunity to connect with your colleagues, bond with other AJCU schools, and start the year off right by moving in February, one of the coldest months of the year.
