A Mile An Hour

Inspired by Beau Miles’ concept called “A Mile An Hour” (watch his video HERE), we challenged participants to run one mile per hour, on the hour for either 6, 12 or 24 hours. In addition to creating a platform for friends, neighbors and full-on running communities to come together to share some smiles and miles, the challenge offered participants an opportunity get out of their typical routine and comfort zone both mentally and physically.

We provided some goodies from our supporters by giving away bags of go-go beans from Summit Coffee, branded swag from Sierra Nevada, and $50 shopping sprees from Recover Brands to raffle prize winners. All participants that joined the party, also received an exclusive discount code for Summit Coffee and the Human Powered Movement Online Store just for joining the party.
