OHIO's '100 Day Challenge' returns

Faculty and staff wellbeing benefit to officially begin July 1, 2021

Beginning in July, Ohio University Human Resources will once again partner with WellWorks to offer OHIO faculty and staff wellbeing benefits and health-related opportunities through the 100 Day Challenge.

What is the 100 Day Challenge?

  • The Challenge is available to all benefits-eligible employees and spouses/partners with an active WellWorks membership. 
  • The goal is to make 100 visits to WellWorks and/or participate in Group Exercise Classes between July 1, 2021, and June 30, 2022. WellWorks will keep track of your visits to the Fitness Center and Group Exercise Classes (limit one visit per day). Attendance at  Live Virtual Classes  will count toward visit counts this year, too!
  • Eligible members who successfully reach 100 logged visits during the above period will be contacted by WellWorks and will receive a free one-year membership (paid for by OHIO Human Resources as a taxable benefit).

No registration is required to participate in the 100 Day Challenge. However, eligible members are responsible for ensuring that their WellWorks member account correctly identifies their employee/spouse/partner status.

Additional details about the  100 Day Challenge are available  online or by emailing  wellworks@ohio.edu

Virtual WellWorks memberships also available

Employees who do not wish to participate in the 100 Day Challenge are invited to explore the WellWorks Virtual Membership option, instead. Ohio University employees will continue to receive the 30 percent discount on this wellbeing offering through calendar year 2021.

Not a WellWorks member?

Facility memberships can be purchased online through the  WellWorks Member Portal . Employees can use their OHIO Single Sign-On to log in and select “Ohio University Employee.”

Additional WellWorks updates for FY22

  • WellWorks members who opted to pause their facility memberships at any point during the past year due to COVID-19 will have their memberships reactivated on July 1, 2021. Please contact wellworks@ohio.edu with any questions or concerns.
  • Beginning July 1, and in compliance with the University’s new public health measures , indoor masks will only be required for unvaccinated members. Scheduled appointments to use the WellWorks facility will also no longer be required.
  • WellWorks is working to establish off-site check-in locations for those who prefer to exercise outdoors on the Athens Campus. Additional details and processes will be shared soon.
  • Through December 31, 2021, anyone with an active facility membership will have unlimited access to WellWorks virtual content through the Member Portal (includes live and on demand wellness classes, recipes, tutorials, trainings and more).
