- MM+M has partnered with World Central Kitchen to hold a five-day fitness challenge from February 8-12 that will highlight the importance of taking care of your mental and physical health and well-being, especially during these uncertain times. Throughout the five days, we want you to get physically active as well as active in your community while we virtually move around the US as a collective. For each ‘do good for you’ or ‘do good for others’ activity you can log points manually, or alternatively, you can sync your fitness tracker to the Charity Footprints app throughout the challenge to gain points and help us reach our goal and make a difference to a charity very close to our hearts. *MM+M will match those points to a dollar amount up to $5,000. Learn more about the event here.
- Once you have registered, your miles towards charity will only count during the week of the challenge (February 8-12, 2021).
- There are 3 ways to track your workouts. (1) Download the Charity Footprints iOs or Android apps. (2) Set up your devices (Fitbit, Garmin, Apple Watch, Google Fit, Misfit, Strava) to track your outdoor fitness activities (3) Manually log your activities and miles on the Charity Footprints website. Your activities for charity will then be shown on the leaderboard on the Charity Footprints website during the week of February 8-12, 2021.
