January 7-29Jack Frost Challenge

#HMFJackFrost – Start 2023 off on the right foot with a 23 day challenge to keep moving through an array of indoor or outdoor activities – running and walking is just the beginning! Track and convert activities like skiing, yoga, ice skating or elliptical workouts and encourage family and friends to join the challenge to help keep each other motivated each day. Set your own daily goal and contribute to reach the community goal each day – 2023 miles worth of activity! Each day a prize is randomly awarded to a participant who submits their activity for the day. The more activities you do, the more chances to win!

Everyone who registers ($30) earns the sparkly Jack Frost challenge medal and has the option to purchase a long-sleeve technical shirt.
