Oakland Medical Center employees join the "Amazing Race Across America"
Are you ready to talk the talk and walk the walk? Our employees are!
Our employees are participating in an employee wellness program to increase physical activity awareness and engage in a bit of friendly competition. Our employee teams are "walking" across the USA- virtually, that is. With the help of pedometers, individuals are aiming for 10,000 steps per day, which is five miles a day, most days of the week. Although this is a medical center competition, we encourage our members to set their own goals and increase physical activity everyday. You learn more about simple and easy ways to get more steps in your day, or create your own 10,000 steps activity program at our Fitness page on kp.org.
