Challenge Details

Goal Trophy

- This is the trophy that will be awarded for conquering this challenge.

50 miles may seem like a daunting distance, but spread out over 30 days, members participating in the Run 50 Miles in 30 Days Challenge need to run only about 1.7 miles per day to meet the goal. 

This flexible goal allows MapMyRun.com members to compete against other participants by running 50 miles in any 30-day period. The 30 days must be consecutive, but members need not run every day.  Members can measure their success against other members. and MapMyRun.com provides participating members with the site’s tools, including run mapping with elevation and distance, street and topographical map viewing, and workout logging.

@cmvert: Welcome to running! I'd say make it your first goal to not overtrain and hurt yourself--stay able to keep running for years to come! For this challenge I'm running on average 4 miles at a time every other day, placed at reliable times in my schedule, but if anything feels painful I take an extra day off. Otherwise, find routes that are enjoyable to be on, and switch it up so it doesn't feel like a chore. I also like doing this as part of my training for other goals to keep me mo

I deleted a work out and it took a day to delete it from my goal miles, but it did eventually take it off. I just completed this challenge and an signing up for it again. It always updated and I got my trophy!

My goal was updating correctly, but then I deleted a workout, and it did not delete that from my total.

I am having the same problem. Total bummer when you log some good runs and look foward to seeing that you are getting closer and closer to your goal ~ and then it doesn't update.

Hey guys,

having the same problem. I am selecting interval training, which is a qualified workout for this challenge, and after the first time i entered my workout, it hasn't worked. Now it says I've only run 1 mile but I've done more. Please help, mapmyrun

I use NikePlus but this challenge is not updating. It does update on the Nike site so I suspect the problem is with this challenge or MapMyRun as a whole.

This is a great challenge to do when getting in to or in my case back into running.

i broke my ankle a few years ago and couldnt handle running distances but after the R&R needed i am back into running and the 50miles (80.47km) was a perfect motivator.
