My Miles My Way Company Challenge

Last week the Bauder UK team undertook a company challenge ‘My Miles My Way’ to collectively move 2209 miles in total across 7 days. This mileage goal was set so our combined activities would hypothetically tour around all of the Bauder manufacturing plants across Europe, returning back to Bauder UK HQ.

We are pleased to say, that not only did we SMASH the challenge… we even had to take a detour from our original route, completing an extra 1988 miles.

Collectively we achieved a total 4197 miles in 7 days!

The Bauder team completed their miles in their individual, collective, fun, and unique ways; from collaborative walking, solid running, long distance cycling to chasing golf balls, walking 5KM carrying a roll of BauderK5K, a hill climb to the top of Arthur’s Seat in Edinburgh, a triathlon, kayaking down the river, playing football and handstand walking! It was a whole team effort whether each individual contributed 1 mile or 300 miles over the week.

This challenge was a fantastic initiative set out by our Charity, Social and Wellbeing team, to encourage the Bauder UK Team to participate in some physical activity, to get moving and be creative to achieve their milage. In a busy work environment, it is important that we look after our mental health by stepping out and switching off. Many people find that physical activity helps them maintain positive mental health by releasing feel-good hormones which improves self-esteem and gives you more energy.

Congratulations Bauder UK team, we smashed the challenge in true Bauder style!

Take a look at some of our highlights from the challenge.
