Dunedin City Council - The Great Pedometer Challenge

In late 2006, the Dunedin City Council (DCC) launched The Great Pedometer Challenge for its 700 staff, asking them to count the number of steps they took each day. The six-week challenge (which consisted of two three week periods spread over nine weeks) offered all staff a pedometer, a pedometer guide, healthy eating tips, activity guidelines and targets for achieving a set number of steps each week.
