by Anagha, Day-Riverside Teen Squad My name is Anagha Rao, and I am a Teen Squad Volunteer at the Day-Riverside Library. For my Teen Squad project, I have founded a physical activity or fitness challenge for teens called the Step Up Challenge to encourage teens to stay physically active this summer. I first got the idea for the Step Up Challenge when I realized how my step count drastically decreased due to the pandemic and staying at home. I tried setting goals to get a certain amount of physical activity, but I had a difficult time staying motivated. I thought a fun challenge would be the perfect way to motivate people to get more physical activity while winning prizes at the same time. In order to participate in the Step Up Challenge, go to any SLCPL library and pick up a tracker. Then, log the number of steps, distance walked, or time spent exercising on the tracker. If you miss a day, keep going and don’t worry about it. Once you have logged 30 days of physical activity, bring it into any SLCPL branch for a prize. If you want an additional challenge, there is a fitness bingo that challenges you to try new types of activities and stretch outside of your comfort zone. After you have gotten a blackout, bring the tracker to any SLCPL branch for a bonus prize. The City Library encourages a respectful and focused dialogue on blog posts.
