Earth Exploration Running and Walking Challenge


Earth Exploration Running and Walking Challenge Race Description

 

How far will your feet take you in 2023?

For the past eleven years we have chosen a different planet to race to as a group.  When we first started the journey, our goal was to race to the moon and all of the planets in the solar system, as well as the sun.  Now we are looking for runners, walkers, and joggers of all shapes, sizes and fitness levels to join us for our journey home to planet EARTH! As a group, our goal is to log enough miles circle the Earth TWELVE times! That is once around the Earth each month!  The Earth's equatorial circumference is 24,902 miles, so to circle the planet TWELVE times, we need to log 298,824 miles as a group.  We can do it! 

Log your miles and they will be added to our total miles as a group. Let’s log enough miles to get there! It’s a long  journey, so we need your help! We'll do our best to get there, but the most important thing is how many miles YOU move! Thousands of people worldwide have joined the challenge. Will you? When you sign up you are given a discount code to use all year (in 2023) to save 35% on ALL of our 2023 events!

Earth Exploration

I keep trying to figure out where I go to log my miles and I keep getting sent in circles. This is the most frustrating experience I've ever had dealing with this company. I will not be doing anymore business if this is how you going to run your website. I did a couple of other year-long challenges and logging the miles was nowhere near the nightmare that this is turning out to be. I'm very disappointed.

Cool

Easy to submit miles and time. Loved the front design of this year's shirt but the back saying of last years is the best.
