1,000 Miles Conquest Challenge 2024
WE ARE BACK!
Make sure you join the Facebook Group at: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1000milesconquest
The challenge is to CONQUER 1,000 miles of distance in 2024! Follow the route from Alexander The Great's birthplace Pella, Greece to The Roman Colosseum in Rome, Italy.
There are 6 ways to complete your 1,000 Miles Conquest! All activities get converted to RUNNING miles, here are the ratios:
RUN, SPRINT, JOG or WALK (1:1) - every mile on your feet will count straight
SWIMMING (1:4) - for every ONE mile of swimming will count for FOUR miles of running
BICYCLING / SPINNING (5:1) - FIVE miles on bicycle count for only ONE mile of running.
ROWING (1:1) - ONE mile of rowing counts for ONE mile of running.
ELLIPTICAL (1:1)
RUCKSACK RUN with at least 40 pounds (1:2) - you can also use a weighted vest but it has to be at least 40 pounds too. Or be badass and count even a heavy ruck straight.
How are we tracking our conquest?
TRACK YOUR CONQUEST! Use your favorite app such as MapMyRun, Nike Run, Garmin, Adidas, Strava, or running shoe or watch that can track GPS.
Log your miles directly into the RunSignUp system. When we all post our progress, we can share our progress, motivate others and track where we at in the challenge.
POST, SHARE, MOTIVATE! In our the Facebook group. Share a screenshot of your run, photos of your watch or treadmill screen, share your app's progress, etc... Give proof that you are doing it and share with the rest! While nobody doubts anybody the point is to interact and celebrate each other success and journey... so post away!
NO STEPPING allowed. If you track your whole day's worth of walking around or how many steps you took during that day, that doesn't count. The point of the challenge is to get out there, outside your routine, and by design, cover conquer the 1,000 miles distance. For example, walking around the mall and tracking your steps is a NO GO. In the end, this conquest relies on honor system and we are all honestly pushing each other through interaction about a common conquest in mind.
SHARE a RUNFIE, SELFIE, all the great SCENERY of your favorite: RUNS, SWIM, RIDE, HIKES, and of course when you are RUCKING!!! Share with other Conquerors your journey and motivate them into theirs.
INVITE AS MANY FRIENDS AS YOU LIKE but motivate them to keep posting and recording their conquest... don't get lazy! - a 1615444.1 m route in Pélla, Greece
