Adventure #6 is here! Join us July 12-21 as we stay active, motivated, and inspired for the 2021 Georgia 2-Day Walk for Breast Cancer! We’re once again using the MoveSpring app this year to train & stay connected as we get ready to “Do the 2.” In this app, you can connect your wearable device or smartphone to automatically track your activity, post training updates, and chat with friends!
All registered 2021 2-Day participants (walkers and crew) are invited to participate via our MoveSpring platform. Click here for instructions on how to sign in to MoveSpring.
Stick To It Challenge: Get In Sync!
Did you know we logged over 50,000 miles as a group in 2020? Start getting in the habit of syncing your devices with the MoveSpring app, and make sure all your miles count. Let’s see if we can hit 60,000 miles this year!
Target Fitness Goal: 5 or 10 Miles
This month we’ll work on hitting those distance goals! Our traditional July training walk distance is 5-10 miles, so we’re challenging you to work a 5 or 10 mile walk into this Adventure. Post a photo of yourself in MoveSpring, and you could be featured on the Georgia 2-Day Walk Facebook page!
Inspiration Location: Stone Mountain Park
There are several ways to get some miles in at the park:
1. Robert E. Lee Blvd, which circles the base of the mountain, is approximately 5 miles long.
2. The Walk-Up Trail is open daily from dawn to dusk, unless otherwise posted. Just follow the painted yellow line along the trail and enjoy the unique scenery and spectacular views along the way. Restrooms are located at the base of the trail. While on top, 1,686 feet above sea level, enjoy amazing views of downtown Atlanta, the North Georgia mountains and the surrounding area. On a haze-free day, you can see 60 miles from the mountain!
3. Choose one of the nature trails and explore the wooded areas.
