Monash Sport Staff Mission Possible

Monday 6 September

Katie Bird - Media Intern

Thirteen Monash Sport staff members have recently completed the Monash Sport Mission Possible challenge held throughout the Monash community in August.

Mission Possible challenged Monash Sport staff members to complete 15 visits to Monash Sport facilities throughout August.  This challenge was met with the majority of participants completing the challenge.  

Thirteen staff members completed the 2009 Mission Possible, a massive improvement on last year’s five.  The mission aimed to raise awareness to the important role regular physical exercise plays in a healthy lifestyle. 

Mission Possible also provided staff with an opportunity to practice what they preach and enjoy the wonderful facilities available at Monash Sport.

Lloyd Gordon who completed Mission Possible said the experience was challenging but fun.  “Completing Mission Possible was a challenge but I had fun getting out and using the facilities and programs here at Monash Sport.  It was good to see staff practicing the things we’ve been preaching to Monash Sport members”.

Those who completed the mission were then placed in a prize ballot which was drawn today.

The winners of the Mission Possible prize draw receive one of five prizes including a $50 Monash University Bookshop Voucher, three slabs of V energy drink, a carton of Powerade, a TeamMONASH™ pack or a 1GB Flash MP3 player.

Mission Possible is another fun way that Monash Sport is encouraging its staff and members to participate in physical activity and improve their health and wellbeing.

Congratulations to the winners:

Lloyd Gordon, Reg Steel, Dave Ranger, Rob Dark, Daniel Lee, Anthony Joordens and Meneka De Silva.

And also to those who completed Mission Possible!
