💥 Challenge Yourself Like a Hero
Whether you're a seasoned runner, a casual walker, or somewhere in between, the Miles of Steel Challenge is built to push your limits, keep you moving, and reward you like the superhero you are.

From November 1 through November 30, 2026, here is your mission:

🎯 Walk and/or run 80 purposeful/training miles and build your medal as you achieve your milestones.
🏃‍♀️ Anywhere, anytime, at your own pace
🌍 Virtual – open to all ages and abilities, everywhere

 
🏅 Epic Finisher Medal Included
Every participant will receive a huge 5+ inch custom-designed Miles of Steel medal!

💡 What makes it even cooler?
The medal features 8 milestone pieces in the shape of crystals like the fortress, each representing 10 miles. As you progress, "build" your medal piece by piece and watch your accomplishment come to life.
