UC Walks on Wednesday, May 18

The 7th annual UC Walks will be held on Wednesday, May 18, 2016. This is a systemwide event in recognition of National Employee Health and Fitness Month, and all campuses are encouraged to get out and walk. Last year, we had a combined total of 5,761 UC employees participate, resulting in a collective total of 10,016 miles walked!

In an effort to foster the UC Healthy Culture mission, we encourage our faculty and staff to take a short walk around our beautiful campus or UC San Diego Health Hillcrest.

Join UC Walks on:

Wednesday, May 18, 2016
11:30 a.m. - 1:00 p.m.
Town Square (campus) or Biomedical Library Courtyard (Hillcrest)

Group led walks will be held at 11:45 a.m. and 12:30 p.m.

Free t-shirts will be provided to the first 500 faculty and staff members. The event includes a mini health and wellness resource fair and free screenings for BMI, blood pressure and body composition.
