ASU joins Pac-12 universities to compete in fitness challenge


ASU is participating in Bank of the West's second annual Pac-12 Best of the West Fit Fest and Fitness Challenge from Oct. 24-Oct. 30. This is a conference-wide initiative promoting regular physical activity and is open to students, faculty and alumni. Last year's event drew over 17,000 participants.

Stop by the Student Recreation Complex (SRC) from 3-5 p.m., Oct. 24 to participate in the Bank of the West Pac-12 Fit Fest kickoff. There will be games, prizes and a cardio jam. Register for the Fitness Challenge week at SRC, or on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/Pac12BestoftheWestFitnessChallenge) and help ASU win for the second year in a row.

The Pac-12 Best of the West Fitness Challenge encourages students, faculty and alumni to get involved. Each participant logs their fitness minutes to contribute to their overall Pac-12 campus participation points. Various activities are listed – ranging from running, walking, swimming and more. Prizes will be awarded to the most active participants from each school, and the ultimate grand prize of $5000 will be awarded to the school with the most active participants.
