2019 Winter Challenge: 30 Miles in 30 Days

Time to crank it up for this 1 mile per day challenge. Already doing more than that? Set your own challenge higher!

During the winter season, it can be easy to stay inside, but were challenging you to log 30 miles in 30 days on a “path” to healthy habits and a healthy you.

In order to earn your Tail on the Trail incentive at the end of the Winter Challenge, you must use the online Trail Tracker to log at least 30 miles between February 1st and March 2nd by 11:59pm. We encourage more than 30 miles if you are already an active person – set your own goal and strive to achieve it! Miles completed (or entered online) outside those dates would not count. You can use many exercise types (walk, bike, run, ski, paddle, snowshoe . .) and many locations (land trail, water trail, neighborhood sidewalk, outdoor or indoor track, cardio equipment . .) to work around the weather and your schedule but the bottom line is to GET OUT and GET ACTIVE!

At the end of the challenge, the incentives will be mailed to anyone that completed their 30 miles and entered them online by the end of the final day of the Challenge.

Make sure your mailing address in your online profile is current so your prize can arrive safely to your mailbox. If you have a PO Box, please use the second address line for the street address in case we mail through FedEx.

The Winter Challenge uses the brand new Tail on the Trail website which now tracks a lot more details (time spent exercising, healthy lifestyle habits, group data and more) and helps program coordinators continue to expand this nationally recognized program.
