Organiser's description

This challenge is FREE for anyone to complete! We will be collecting donations for our scholarship funds. Every spring we give out scholarships to high school seniors in West Virginia. To date, some of these scholarships have over 100+ applications submitted. Any funds/donations raised will go towards these scholarships in hopes that we can present another one.

Take on our WVStrong Spring Challenge to stay motivated with your running and walking! This time we will be traveling away from the slopes (Snowshoe Ski Resort and Canaan Valley Ski Resort) and coming to Charleston. We have made these virtual challenges so that anyone can complete them. The challenge starts March 12th and ends June 20th (100 day challenge).

ROUTE #1 - 150 MILES (1.5 MILES/DAY)
Travel virtually from Snowshow Ski Resort to Charleston!

ROUTE #2 - 300 MILES (3.0 MILES/DAY)
Travel virtually from Canaan Valley Ski Resort to Charleston!

You will have the ability to log your miles, track your progress, collect a few virtual badges, and check the leader board daily! Invite your friends/family to this challenge to stay motivated/active all spring long!

Registration officially opens on March 6th at 12:00AM. Registration will close April 30th at 11:59PM. Therefore, if you want to take part in the challenge please be registered by the deadline. This allows us to place swag orders and get it to those that ordered it right at the completion of the event (our goal is to have all purchased swag shipped out during the last week of the challenge).
