2022 Ultimate GAP Relay Trail Challenge

The challenge returns! Do you have what it takes?

P3R and UPMC Health Plan were ecstatic to challenge runners in a whole new way last year by introducing The Ultimate GAP Relay Trail Challenge presented by UPMC Health Plan. Now, we are excited to announce the return of the challenge for October 2022!

This daily movement challenge consists of a new challenge six days a week for four weeks - that's 24 challenges that each align with a leg of the GAP Relay. On some days, you'll focus on running a specific distance, others you'll aim to get a certain number of steps in before midnight, and on others, you'll try to climb a certain number of staircases to achieve an elevation goal. You can complete the challenge anywhere you want according to YOUR schedule.

At the end of the 24 days and challenges, you'll have MOVED through each leg of the GAP Relay (that's 150 miles!) and earned yourself a medal and shirt for your efforts PLUS the camaraderie and competition from your fellow challengers.

We've planned out every challenge for you and will email you each Saturday starting October 1, 2022 with the new week's challenge.

Each year, the GAP Relay presented by UPMC Health Plan raises money to support the Great Allegheny Passage Conservancy, the non-profit organization supporting, improving, and caring for the Great Allegheny Passage. The Passage still needs the Conservancy's work to thrive, and we hope to still raise money to support their important work this year. While certainly not required, we encourage you to make a donation during the registration process.

Each participant will receive a commemorative medal, long sleeve tech tee featuring custom artwork, retro race socks, and swag bag!
