Do I have to complete my goal distance in one day?
No! You have until Sunday, July 21, 2024 at 11:59pm to log kilometers towards your goal distance. This allows you to complete as little or as many kilometers each week and to vary your activities. For example, you could hike 2km one day and walk 3km another — all your activities go towards accomplishing your goal distance!
