Treadmill Desk Challenge for World Health Day

April 5 - Treadmill desk challenge

World Health Day is Friday, April 5, 2019. Join University of Alberta Libraries in our treadmill desk challenge!

What is the goal of the treadmill desk challenge? It’s to see how many minutes (or hours!) we can accumulate by walking our way to health on our seven treadmill desks. On April 5 we will post a sheet on each treadmill where you can log the amount of time you spent on the treadmill desk. No need to put your name, or any specifics, we just want to know how long you used the treadmill desk . Our goal is to accumulate more than 500 minutes by 6 pm. Help us by devoting some time to our treadmill desk challenge – the best part is that you can study, write or do whatever work you need to get done while being active.

You can find treadmill desks at the following libraries:

  • Herbert T. Coutts Education and Kinesiology, Sport and Recreation Library has one desk in the Reserve Room
  • Cameron Science and Technology Library has two desks in the southeast corner of the main level
  • John W. Scott Health Sciences Library has one desk on the east wall of the top level and two in the southeast corner of level 1a
  • Augustana Campus Library has one desks on the main floor by the windows

The announcement of how many minutes were completed will be announced on social media the week of April 8th. Thank you for joining us and supporting World Health Day!
