PAC 10 Challenge
Los Angeles
12:00am-11:59pm
The Pac 10 Fitness Challenge is here! Sign up! The minutes of physical activity (even if it’s just walking around campus!) count towards USC’s overall points and you can enter up to 120 minutes a day.
An important reason we need to kick it up this year is that GPSS President, Mathias Knape, and USG President, Jens Midthun, will be asking the Board of Trustees to incorporate more field space into the Master Plan for USC’s campus. Currently there is no intention to get more field space but rather take the Intramural Field away with an expansion of Heritage Hall. Winning the Pac 10 Challenge is one way to show that we’re a campus that needs the space to play and be active.
1. To sign up, go to: http://pac10fitnesschallenge.wsu.edu/usc/register.aspx and fill out the information requested.
2. Log your minutes of physical activity at http://pac10fitnesschallenge.wsu.edu/usc/default.aspx. When you log in you can see your stats and record activity. To record activity, choose from the drop-down menu the activity type which will give you the options of activities in that category to the right. Log the minutes and the date they occurred. You may add minutes retroactively and up to 120 minutes a day.
