There are two ways to track your steps:
Option 1: Connect your fundraising page via a fitness app (i.e. Strava, Garmin, Fitbit or MapMyFitness)
Option 2: Log your steps manually
Please note: all steps logged before October 1st will be removed once the event officially begins. However, if you’d like to save your steps before this date, you will receive an email with instructions on how to roll your steps into October.
