Description:

Around the world in 80 days

(Q1 2020 Theme - AKRAYA Company Steps Challenge)

It is the beginning of a new year, and a new decade. Most of us will have made atleast one health related resolution - lose weight, become stronger, be more active, lower cholesterol, lower BP, get a girlfriend;-)

Our theme this quarter will help with (almost!) all of these resolutions, and more.

Team AKRAYA will circumnavigate the earth following the route in the famous movie - Around the world in 80 days (see  "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Around_the_World_in_Eighty_Days" target="_blank" target="_blank" target="_blank" target="_blank" target="_blank" target="_blank" target="_blank" >https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Around_the_World_in_Eighty_Days )

How?

Most of us have phones that automatically record our daily steps. We will use ChallengeTracker to automatically upload our daily steps and track our progress. See below for instructions on setting up auto upload.

We have created 10 teams of 10 people each. There is a company goal, and we have individual and team challenges.
