Between November 1st and June 6th, the wellness committee is offering the challenge of logging your steps/miles for a wellness challenge. Our goal is to VIRTUALLY complete the Pacific Northwest Trail that starts at the east end of Glacier National Park and ends at Cape Alava, Washington, following the US/Canadian border. Record your walking/running workouts and daily movements via your watch, your phone, or a pedometer...whatever works best for you! It's the honor system. To complete the challenge, you'll need to average just over 5 miles per day. The American Heart Association recommends that we walk 5 miles a day! Please make sure you enter the same email address each time that is spelled correctly:) A cool tee shirt will be given to anyone completing the challenge at the end of the school year. You can log you miles by clicking here. You can see the summary of your miles and everyone else's by clicking here. There is a Google map to see where you'd be on the trail.
