“CFA Anywhere” WOD, October 2, 2024

“CFA Anywhere” – Wed, Oct 2

October 31 Miles Challenge – Day 2 (AMRAP – Reps)

🎃 Challenge: Complete 1 mile every day (walk or run) for 31 days in October!

🗓️ Dates: October 1 – October 31

🏃 How it Works:
– Walk or run 1 mile each day—indoors or outdoors—it’s your choice!
– While you’re welcome to do more, only 1 mile will count per day toward your 31-mile goal.
– Log your mile daily in the app to stay on track and keep your streak alive!* (You’ll be responsible for tallying your total as you go.)

💡 Pro Tip:
Make it part of your daily routine—whether it’s a morning walk, an evening jog, or during lunch breaks. Keep it fun and aim for consistency!
