Fun Run

Cross Train

“You’re braver than you believe and stronger and smarter than you think.” — Winnie-the-Pooh

Each week we ask you to do something slightly new and different. This can include: playing in a pick-up game (soccer, flag football, or volleyball), or riding a bike.

If you do choose to run, you “have-to-have-to-have-to” run a new and different route each time, preferably with a new and different person each time! Running can help us meet new people and experience new places, and the combination of those two are easy ways to keep us excited and inspired by our program!

Regardless of the activity you choose, we also prefer you leave the watch or screen at home, or at least out of sight! Focus on the company you’re with and the new scenery you’re exploring!

So go forth, unplug, and tap into the outdoors!
