Springday

Wanting to keep your employees Wellthy this Winter?
Join the Springday Jog Squad and kick-start employee wellness.

There is a new catch phrase this year - being Wellthy! We know that Poor Health = Poor Productivity yet finding an innovative way to motivate your employees to focus on their wellness, move more and eat healthily can be tough.

So this year, we have an answer, give your employees the Springday Jogsquad - it's FREE. Encourage your employees to enter a "Fun Run" (we have put together a calendar for you) and whether they walk or try and smash a Personal Best, Springday can provide the support they need. Our step-by-step running programs, motivational emails, online chat forums with experts, and online community will inspire and motivate your employees into achieving their goal (from couch to 5km or smash a PB in a Half Marathon).

Whilst your employees are getting fit, they can also do their bit for the Heart Foundation by getting friends and family to sponsor them via their own online fundraising page. Not only will they be looking after their own heart, but they will also be looking after the hearts of all Australians by helping the Heart Foundation continue its lifesaving work.

“Heart disease is the number one killer of Australian men and women,” says Tony Thirlwell, Heart Foundation CEO – NSW.

“Being active is an important way to improve your heart health. Most people don’t realise that the simple act of walking for 30 minutes a day can reduce your risk of heart disease by as much as half and gradually walking faster, further or progressing to jogging or running only increases the benefit. As a charity, the Heart Foundation relies on the generous support of the community to carry out our lifesaving work."

“Funds raised by Jog Squad participants will help us fund critical research and community projects to improve awareness, prevention and treatment of heart disease,” adds Mr Thirlwell.
