Promoting good physical and mental health is an important priority for SL Controls, and it never hurts to add in a bit of friendly competition. So, throughout the month of June, 30 members of the SL Controls team split into five teams to compete in our summer activity challenge.
Participants could engage in any type of physical activity, anytime and anywhere. All they had to do was log their activity on the Strava app so we could award points. The more minutes the participants were active, the more points they received.
There was a wide range of activities and sports that team members took part in, including running, walking, hiking, swimming, cycling, kayaking, pilates, yoga, HIIT workouts, and golf. Photos taken by some of the participants are below.
But there could only be one winner – the Le(g)s Misérables team who claimed a comfortable victory by the end of the month.
Norma Mulligan, People & Culture Executive at SL Controls said: “The first thing to say is well done to all the participants in this year’s summer activity challenge at SL Controls. And congratulations to the winning team – Riley Moloney, Darragh McMorrow, Deirdre Loughlin, Fergal Quinn, and Bharat Varada. We also need to give a shout-out to Dermot McMorrow who was named the most active individual following an impressive performance in the second week of the challenge.
“Staying physically and mentally fit and healthy doesn’t stop at the end of June, though, so we have also used the event to encourage all members of the SL Controls team to stay active and keep up the good work from the challenge.”
