What is it?
L.A.C.E. UP! is MRA's annual active commute challenge. The challenge's goal is to encourage MRA communities to think about their daily routines and how small changes to incorporate more movement and activity can lead to long-term benefits - health, personal, economic, community, and environmental.
How it Works
There are two ways to participate:
as a participant
- Walk, run, cycle, snowshoe, or ski to school/work at least once a week during the month-long event
- For each DAY you participate, your name will be entered in the weekly draw. Additionally, for every WEEK you participate in, your name will be entered into the grand prize draw.
- Record your commutes with your class, school, family, workplace, or organization champion
as a champion
- Register your class, school, family, workplace, or organization by November 19th.
- Encourage your team to participate
- Record and submit your team's weekly log sheets by Tuesday at 9 am for a chance to win a champion prize (drawn weekly).
- Optional: promote the benefits of living and commuting actively for an extra entry in the grand prize draw.
