Rethink Your Drink Hydration Challenge: MyWellness points and weekly giveaway available

August 15, 2022

Marquette University employees and their spouses can participate in a fun and competitive challenge which will encourage participants to track their daily consumption of water online. The goal is to consume 64 ounces (eight glasses) of water per day as part of our focus on total well-being. The challenge will be held Monday, Aug. 22, through Sunday, Sept. 18. Registration opens Monday, Aug. 15. Register 64 ounces of water a day at least five days per week by Sept. 18 to fully participate.

How do I enroll in the challenge?

Go to My Wellness Portal and enter your personal username and password. Once you land on the “Challenges” page, you are now enrolled in the challenge! (first-time users see registration directions below).

How do I log my activity?

Each day log in to My Wellness Portal, click on the “Challenges” tile, record the number of ounces of water consumed in the text box and click “Save.” While it is recommended that participants log ounces every evening, you have seven days to record daily consumption.

How am I eligible for My Rewards points and chances for give-away prizes?

The goal is to drink at least 64 ounces of water (eight glasses) per day, at least five days per week.  Participants who meet the weekly goal throughout the entire four-week challenge (four weeks total) will be awarded 25 My Rewards points. Participants who log 64 ounces of water for at least five days in a week will be entered into the weekly prize giveaway for that week (the week ends on each Sunday at 7 p.m.). The challenge will be held Monday, Aug. 22 through Sunday, Sept. 18.  Registration opens Monday, Aug. 15.

Interested in working with a health coach?

Challenge participants are encouraged to work with a personal health coach to take your fitness to the next level.  You can connect with a free health coach by calling 800-882-2109 or visiting the “Coaching” tab on your My Wellness Portal.
