Kick off event CANCELLED (October 30th from 4:30–5:30 PM at the corner of Charles Street and Boylston Street in Boston).

Bonus Miles Day — October 30: Any walking or running you did on October 30 — on your own or with a neighbor — will count toward your November 1 total. You'll need to add it to your November 1 total when the virtual results platform opens on November 1 (it does not allow you to pick dates in October).

Stay tuned: We’ll be announcing a Mid-Month Meet-Up soon to keep the momentum going (and give you another chance to earn bonus miles!).
