Blue Water Walking Club 2020 Marathon Miler Challenge

Are you up for a challenge? 

Become a Blue Water Walking Club Marathon Miler!

What is the Blue Water Walking Club Marathon Miler Challenge? If you challenge yourself to do 1 mile, 1 ½ mile or 2 miles a day or every couple of days, you can definitely reach this fitness goal of accumulating 26.2 miles by July 31, 2020. Map out a course in your yard, in your neighborhood or on a local trail. Keep track of the miles you run or walk. Challenge your friends. Make a team. A marathon is typically a running event, but we want to encourage everyone to stay active during this time, so both walking and running count for this Blue Water Walking Club Marathon Miler challenge.

We are currently following protective social distancing by staying at least 6 ft away from other people. Please be sure to honor that if you are out running or walking with a friend or in a public area.
