Holiday Mission

Run For The Food Bank requires all participating users to log a minimum of 25 km OR 7 consecutive days (minimum 1 km/day). Your total distance will count towards the team score!

City teams are hosted by our retail partners. All participants in one of the cities will contribute to a cumulative team score and boost your city’s chance to receive the local donation. Not based in any of these cities? No stress, you can still participate in the mission, and your distance will contribute to the World Team!
