100 MILES IN A MONTH
Community CHALLENGE

C’mon … Let’s do it!!
You can log 100 miles in a month!
3.23 miles/day through October

• Rules are made to be broken – we’re keeping it SIMPLE!
• Everyone keeps track of their own numbers. 😊
• You can log actual miles of walking/jogging or count approximately 15 minutes of continuous exercise as 1 mile
• Let go of all the “shtuff” holding you back…
o I’m too tired- you’ll have more energy!
o I’m too heavy- no worries, call me, I’ll help get you started.
o It’ too far- BS! Log by time rather than distance.
o I don’t have enough time – OK? Realistically – time is precious but so is good health. Break it into 15-minute chunks – it doesn’t have to be 3.23 miles all at once just in one day!
o It’s too expensive – Nope! No gym membership necessary unless you want to use my equipment. This is a challenge to address community health. Choose a space that is right for you whether it’s your own home, walking trial, or workout facility and keep moving!
• Send a text, email, or fb message when you’ve made the miles!
o Prizes for those with proof of 100 miles logged on a calendar or app!
