Just Move It
It's almost time for the 8th annual Just Move It fitness initiative. Make plans now to join the "UAH Alumni" team and let's start the new year strong.
Just Move It (JMI) is UAH's 10-week campus-wide health and fitness competition, open to all faculty, staff, students, and alumni. The goal of JMI is to encourage everyone to incorporate exercise and healthy behaviors into their daily lives. Participants set a personal fitness goal and then earn points for exercising and other healthy activities. Participants may compete on their own or as part of a team. Participation is tracked online so you can join the team and participate from anywhere in the world.
Registration for Just Move It will begin in January. |
