Come walk with us! Each Indiana University campus will celebrate World Heart Day with a lunchtime walk. Bring your friends and coworkers as we show our support for a healthy campus. Free t-shirts & visors while supplies last.
Chancellor’s Challenge
This year, it’s personal: The chancellor/provost of each campus has accepted the challenge of having the most participation on his or her campus. The campus with the highest percentage of participating staff/faculty wins. We’re talking bragging rights for a whole year!
Your Campus Route
Each route is less than a mile so you can come to the walk during your lunchtime. We hope this inspires you to gather friends for walking breaks, consider a walking meeting, or walk on your own in the future!
