The Covering House 24,901-Mile Challenge, by F3 St. Louis
Join F3 St. Louis for our 2nd annual, week-long virtual activity challenge, benefiting The Covering House. This year, we've upped the stakes and have set a goal to perform 24,901 miles of activity as a group. As sex trafficking is a huge issue all around the world, we have decided to perform one (1) mile of activity for every mile it takes to travel around the entire Earth! All participants will track and report their mileage throughout the week, using a GPS tracking app/device (Apple Watch, Samsung Watch, Strava, MapMyRun, etc). Together, we will log more than 24,901 combined miles of running, walking, cycling, swimming, rucking, bear-crawling or whatever your favorite activity is! If you choose to run a 5K, your results must be completed between 5am Sunday August 22rd and 11pm Saturday August 28th, and logged using a GPS-based app, such as Strava, MapMyRun, Runkeeper, etc.
