As part of Metito’s efforts to promote a healthy lifestyle, the Metito Fitness Challenge “Count Your Steps” was launched. The objective was to encourage all employees to take at least 10,000 steps a day, promoting physical activity and improving overall health and well-being. The challenge ran for one month (22 Feb – 22 March 2023), during which employees were asked to track their steps using fitness tracking devices or mobile apps. The results were outstanding with the participation of 172 employees, 124 of which achieved the daily target and on overall staggering 36,374,044 steps taken.
“Fun Fact: The circumference of the Earth at the equator is approximately 24,901 miles and taking 36 million steps can cover a distance of around 17,280 miles – this is almost 70% of the distance around the world at the equator.”
One of the key factors contributing to the success of this challenge was the enthusiasm and engagement of the employees, with many of them sharing their feedback and how they felt more energized, less stressed, and more focused as they attempted to balance work/life balance to complete their daily targets.
