• Pick a flat course or head to a nearby track and give it a good, hard effort while running a mile.* Don’t forget to warm up your muscles first!
• Then, anytime in February head back to the same mile course or a track and see if you can beat your previous time!
• If you succeed, you’ll be in the running for one of six $25 store gift certificates each accompanied by a yummy chocolate heart. Thanks Hoka for providing the prizes!
• Walkers can do their speediest walk on this challenge.

What to do after completing both of your heart thumping mile attempts?

Email us at runners@fairhavenrunners.com with both your times and if you ran even faster the second time around, you’ll be entered in the gift card drawing.

* Don’t worry about thinking you aren’t speedy enough. The challenge is just to be speedier than you were during your first good, hard effort attempt.)
