Join the Challenge!

As part of UMKC & United Healthcare’s commitment to health, this spring we are excited to join the April Million Mile Month challenge through HealthCode. This virtual month-long event is an opportunity for you to enjoy the beautiful weather by getting active and help the UM System and HealthCode get close to a million miles in April. 

You get to choose the number of miles you want to set as your goal for the month.  Each day you can walk, run, dance, swim, bike or do whatever activity you like to get to your goal. The first 250 employees to register will have access to pick up a wearable pedometer watch. If you track ten miles during the month you will be entered into a drawing where 9 winners will be selected at random.

Prizes include, but are not limited to:

  • Tissue Massage Guns
  • Self Care Kits
  • Exercise Kits

Note: HealthCode offers prizes for the challenge but they are not associated with University of Missouri System nor United Healthcare and are managed independently.

Register today! It only takes 5 minutes. Participants must register by or before April 15 using the links and instructions below. After that, all that is left is to go fall in love with something active! Whether it’s running, dancing, joining UMKC's walking club or anything in between, every active minute counts!
