Run, Walk or Cycle the distance from the Historic Lighthouse in Montauk at the tip of Long Island NY North along the Hudson River to the Lookout at the Top of Mount Royal Park in Montreal Canada.  Passing historic landmarks and towns in this 525 mile journey.  You can also run up and back for a total of 1050 miles or if those distances are too much you can do 225 miles over the same time frame.  Make those training miles count for something this summer and help support some great charities in the process.  You can even use the same miles if you are doing another challenge.  Same running, more bling! 

There are a lot of challenges out there right now but we hope you find this unique.  And this one is in miles not KM's (but we will show the conversion for all you metric folks).  These are attainable distances with the weekly totals being about 25 miles (40km) for the 525 mile and 47 miles (75km) a week for the 1050.  Need a little bit less of a challenge?  You can run the Capital to Canada Challenge at 225 miles which is less than 11 miles a week (17.5km).  These miles can be running or walking miles- road, trail, or treadmill etc....  Please NO bike miles for the running event-  but wait....
