Walk For Joy

Walk for Joy is open to all UBC students, staff, faculty, and community members and is designed to reduce sedentary time. Over 9 weeks, participants will accumulate points based on how much they walk, roll or take part in physical activity in teams of five or as individuals.

Awards and prizes will be presented to the team with the most steps walked, best team name and best team photo.

This year’s charitable partner is Abreast in a Boat, and participants are encouraged to make a donation to the organization in lieu of registration feed.

When: January 30 – April 2, 2023.
