On March 21, the Tampa Metropolitan Area YMCA won the Treadmill Tuesday Challenge, a second annual competition with the YMCA of Florida’s First Coast. About 1,630 Tampa Bay residents completed nearly 3,358 miles during the 12-hour event, surpassing the First Coast by about 21 miles.
For the First Coast, 1,580 residents logged 3,337 miles.
Together, the Tampa YMCA and First Coast YMCA leveraged a friendly competition to inspire community members to become more physically active and adopt healthier lifestyles.
Besides participating at their neighborhood YMCA, community members were able to join the competition from other locations via social media. Of the 3,210 total participants, 94 joined by uploading a post-workout photo.
