HealthCode Healthy Living Challenges
Thrive has partnered with the non-profit organization, HealthCode, who provides quarterly global activity events during the months of January, April, July, and October. Their focus is physical activity, nutrition, environment, and community connections.
You can participate individually or as an agency, division, or department in a challenge.
All you need to do is set an individual goal or with Thrive’s help, you can set specific agency goals. Then measure your progress with the activity logger on HealthCode’s website, or you can use your own device like FitBit or MapMyFitness app which tracks your progress. A private personal profile page is set up for individuals and leaderboard is updated daily and you can click on “download event” and this will allow you to view details such as your and other agency participation.
Don’t let the turkey, the holiday events or bad weather keep you from your health goals. Use the Turkey Trek to keep you motivated and moving.
Free access: choose the Bronze Level when you register.
