Collapse ▲Are you looking for a little motivation to move more? Are you craving an opportunity to connect with your family, with your church or faith-based organization, or with your friends? Faithful Families has announced their first-ever ALL Faithful Families challenge event! Join Faithful Families and partners across the country for the Virtual Walking Challenge, as we stay connected while being physically distanced. During these uncertain times, let’s support each other by staying healthy, staying strong, and moving more.
The challenge is a fun way to encourage you, your family, and your faith community to be more physically active. Each week of the event, you will receive a newsletter with quick tips and ideas for staying active and connected during this pandemic. Using the Walking Challenge Log, you will keep track of how much you walk each day. For every 10 minutes of walking, you will receive 1 point. At the end of the challenge, you will count the total number of points you have accumulated throughout the four weeks.
The Faithful Families Virtual Walking Challenge will begin Monday, June 8, and end on Sunday, July 5, 2020. During these four weeks, you will be challenged to increase how much you walk from week to week. This event is completely free! Materials will be available for all to download on the FaithfulFamilies website. You may also contact us at N.C. Cooperative Extension, Sampson County Center, for materials.
