The Tampa Metropolitan Area YMCA and YMCA of Florida’s First Coast will host the “2016 Treadmill Tuesday Challenge” between the Tampa Bay and Northeast Florida communities for the greatest distance traveled on a treadmill.
The free event, open to YMCA member and non-members, will be Feb. 9 from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., and encourages healthy living while promoting friendly competition.
Community members are invited to complete a 30-minute treadmill workout at Tampa YMCA branches or via social media. At Tampa YMCA facilities, staff will record the distance each participant walks, jogs or runs on a treadmill for 30 minutes. Participants can also join via Twitter, by tweeting a post-workout photo of the treadmill dashboard displaying the total distance, with the hashtag “#TreadmillTuesday” and tagging “@TampaYMCA.”
The various YMCA branches also will offer giveaways, chance drawings, and activities.
