Heres how it works:

* ONE PARK, ONE TRAIL, EVERY WEEK: Each week well feature a different Carmel Park, complete with a unique trail to run or walk. This year, we're also suggesting longer routes to other parks for more mileage; we'll provide you directions and a link to the managing park department's website so you can check out hours, amenities, and more!
* TRACK YOUR PROGRESS: Complete the weekly trail and log your results [https://help.runsignup.com/support/solutions/articles/17000087349-submit-and-manage-virtual-results] using your fitness tracker or manually entering your date, time, and distance. Whether youre racing against the clock or enjoying a leisurely walk, every step counts!
* PICTURE OF THE WEEK: When you log your results, share your favorite photo with us on Facebook or Twitter. We'll pick a winning photo each week for a fun prize from CCPR!
