In keeping with the Recreation mission, our Special Events are 'one-off' events that promote community, movement, fun and play. These events are very little time commitment and provide activities students may not have experienced before. Events could be held on campus or an off campus adventure. Some programs come with a small fee. Grab a friend and try something new!Â

Walktober
- The Department of Physical Education, Recreation and Athletics, in partnership with the Alumnae Association and Friends of Wellesley Athletics, is excited to announce the Walktober wellness program is BACK!
- What is Walktober?? It's a fun and inspiring way to take advantage of autumn's cool temperatures and spectacular views as you step out and step up to better health. You'll be taken on a virtual color tour through some of the world's most vibrant, breathtaking landscapes — while boosting energy, improving mood, and making walking a priority… for life. Your goal is to collect 30 leaves – 1 leaf each day, when you log 6000+ steps, for the 42-day program. You can use a tracking device, enter manually, or add exercise minutes that convert automatically.
- Registration for Walktober opens September 15th.  https://wellesleycollege.walktober.com This 42-day fitness program has a motivating team competition, interactive message board, helpful resources, interesting articles, and more. Also, because we know Wellesley loves a good competition, we have added the class color challenge! Team up, add up those steps and connect with all the generations of Wellesley Alumnae through your class color. The challenge starts Wednesday, October 1st! If you have any issues or questions about Walktober, please contact the Alumnae Association at alumnae@wellesley.edu
