November Challenge



Welcome to the November Challenge Event!! For new members, every month we host a challenge to help keep us motivated to reach our goals. Many individuals have recently completed races, are preparing for races, embracing taper week(s) or are on a running hiatus due to injury. No fear! November challenge is a fun challenge that can be adapted to fit everyone’s unique goals and needs! 

This time of year, is full of family, food and Thanksgiving. Novembers Challenge is one that can be adapted to the Holiday season and your schedule. 
We are all thankful for something, right? It could be family, friends, being able to run, a whole list of things. Well, this is your time to share it as well as setting aside a minimum of 10 mins of activity or 1 mile run/walk every day. It’s your choice, you can run 3 miles, do 10 minutes of stretching or run/walk a mile just as long as you’re making a conscience effort to be active. Post your progress daily or weekly, we want to cheer you on. Also, feel free to post your “Thankful for” posts daily as well with pictures of who, where or what your thankful for. We love pictures and selfies!

Not wanting to do the 10 min or 1 mile minimum daily challenge, no worries. Join in the Thankful for challenge. Post your monthly mileage goal and report to us regularly on how it’s going. Please track your own mileage and update your miles in your post. Make the challenge work for you! The most important thing is to remember to run with JOY!
