FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:



HOW DOES IT WORK?

First you'll need to register. Then every time you go for a run, head over to the Results page. Look yourself up and enter the date & miles you ran. That's all you have to do! Don't want to enter your miles every run? Enter them weekly, or monthly if you prefer.

WHO IS IT FOR?

The challenge is for all members of Bluegrass Runners.

WHY IS IT CALLED THE 2025 MILEAGE CHALLENGE? DO I NEED TO RUN 2025 MILES?!?!?

We had a 1000 Mile Challenge for a long time, but we realized 1000 miles (or 2.74 miles per day) isn't necessarily the best goal for everyone. We want everybody to be able to join in and did a 1000, 750, 500, 250, and 2023 (Run the Year) challenge in 2023! But we found the different distances were confusing, some runners registered for multiple goals, so we have changed it to a single event, the 2025 Mileage Challenge. Your goal is your goal, but we want to celebrate the miles you put in whether or not you reach an arbitrary number (1000 or whatever) by an arbitrary date (12/31/2025).

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?

Nothing. Totally free.

ARE THERE PRIZES?

Everyone who runs completes the miles (or more) for their challenge will be entered to win prizes. These will be drawn at in early 2026 once the tallies are in. You must be a Bluegrass Runners member on 12/31/2025 to win a prize.

WHAT IF I DON'T SIGN UP UNTIL LATE?

No problem! You can enter activities retroactively back to January first.

WHAT IF I JOINED BGR IN THE MIDDLE OF THE YEAR?

Also just fine - any miles you ran during the year count toward your total.

DO I REALLY HAVE TO ENTER MY MILEAGE ON EVERY INDIVIDUAL DAY?

If you want to pick a date and enter your mileage for that whole week you can. Example: if you ran 20 miles during 1/9-1/15, you can enter 20 miles on 1/15. Or at the end of the month. Whatever works for you--we want to walk and run miles, not engage in bookkeeping to track them!
