Challenge #2
Working without a break can be hard on the brain and the eyes! Working from home also means less walking to/from meetings at our offices and on campus. Get outside for a family walk, dog walk, a simple stroll through your neighborhood – or even just enjoy your outdoor space right at home.
Challenge: Take a photo while on a walk or in your outdoor space and email it to carysn@missouri. Bonus points if you caption your photo with a song title using the word “walk”!
