Weekly Walking Moasis
A Walking Moai (mow-eye) is more than motivation to get moving. It's an active timeout for healthy conversation. It's a boost for your mood. It's a meeting that's anything but boring. These Walking Moais provide a time out to talk, laugh, connect, and move!

Groups
Your results will be compiled with others in your group. If you are a walker, you will be compared with other walkers, not someone running to train for a marathon. You can still join a team and team standings won't be affected by which group you are in. Members on a team may be in different groups. We recognize that all our participants have different physical levels of ability and want to make sure to all participants are included. Please refer to this conversion chart to convert alternative forms of movement into steps for the challenge.
Challenges
A little friendly competition never hurt. If you are a member of a team, you can challenge another team(s) at any time during the challenge. An email will be sent to notify them of the challenge and you can track your status along the way.
Prizes
Each week, prizes will be awarded to one team and one individual! Once you complete the challenge, you are entered into the grand prize drawing for two $200 Target Gift Cards. All prizes are awarded by random drawings of those who have entered steps.
Reminders
