WORKERS are being urged to get into the Olympic spirit by signing up for a sporting challenge. Shake Up September is a national activity logging challenge run by Workplace Challenge, which aims to encourage employees to bring physical activity into the workplace by trying as many Olympic or Paralympic sports as possible in a month.

Sport Hampshire & IoW, inspired by Team GB, wants people to sign up to Workplace Challenge for free and try at least five different sports throughout September.

The more activities they log via the challenge website or mobile app, the more points they will earn as they go for gold on a national challenge leaderboard. Participants can share their success on social media via #ShakeUp2016.
