“Everything about it was fantastic. Everything was so easy and smooth. A ton of people want us to do another one.
We had people on our teams meeting before work to walk for an hour, and they’re still currently doing that and this is months and months after the challenge is over. People still walk in the halls, but they’re also still doing those things that they weren’t doing beforehand.
It’s economical and easy to use. And so if it’s economical and easy to use then, why wouldn’t you? It’s a no-brainer. It’s easy to implement. All of us wellness coordinators never have enough time or enough money for anything, so it’s something you can set some funds aside for and something you don’t need to be on top of every second of every day, and it’s nice that it kind of runs itself.”

“The success of this program has been like no other.”
“I have been involved with group health plans for many years. As the Vice President of Health Risk Management and a Registered Nurse, I am concerned about members with chronic and developing chronic diseases.
Obesity runs rampant in our groups. Lack of exercise is a major problem. When I was looking for a walking program, I ran across A Step Ahead. At first I was skeptical but after a trial with a large think tank, a very difficult client, I was sold.
Not only were members “moving” but they were also exercising more. And what I didn’t count on was the mental health aspect. Employees were chatting with each other and smiling. No one wanted to be caught by the zombies! The success of this program has been like no other. Since the trial, I have implemented in many other groups and never have I had a group that didn’t like it! I highly recommend.”
