MOTIVATION & ACCOUNTABILITY CHALLENGE
JUNE 1-30
Welcome to our Month of Miles Challenge, where every step counts toward your streak of consecutive days of running or walking! This challenge will help keep you moving all month. How many days in a row can you go? How many days in June can you log activity? Whether you’re jogging, sprinting, or simply taking a leisurely stroll, every movement contributes to your streak. Participants receive weekly motivation, fun mini challenges to keep your miles interesting, our new branded seat protector for your vehicle, and the ability to win awesome prizes on our Facebook page.
This is a personal challenge. Start right where you’re at and work up from there. It could be .5 miles for your first day, but the point is to make sure to log something! If you need a greater challenge than a streak, work to increase your overall distance each week by 5-10 percent.* Remember, your only competition is YOU!
*We advise NOT increasing your running if you are already where you want to be with your mileage. If you do have the personal goal to increase your running, we strongly advise not increasing this mileage more than 10% a week. Walking counts and can be an important part of reaching your goals!
