AUGUST CHALLENGE EXTENDED INTO SEPTEMBER! SET YOUR OWN GOAL AND EARN SOME COOL SWAG AND GET ANOTHER MONTH TO ACCOMPLISH IT! 


ARIZONA AUGUST VIRTUAL DISTANCE CHALLENGE 2020

With the ongoing difficulties that have come to define 2020, we now know more than ever before, that being active and connecting with others is integral to our wellbeing. Despite these challenging times, we hope this experience will be yet another reminder that #lifeisbrewtiful with good friends and great beer.

In the spirit of mutual support and encouragement, WE WELCOME YOU TO THE AUGUST ARIZONA VIRTUAL DISTANCE CHALLENGE! We hope all of us experience the beauty of encouraging one another to achieve our individual goals and continue sharing positivity and light to our community through an otherwise dark time.

We hope this experience can be a reminder that #lifeisbrewtiful.

HOW IT WORKS:

We realize that reaching 100 miles in one month is a lofty goal for some so we decided to let you determine your goal for the month. Pick something that will challenge you and that you will have to work for and be dedicated to reach. Prizes for the month are awarded on the precentage of miles you reach toward your goal. Read on how to get started and how you get connected to Strava to track your miles.

THE PRIZES:

(Mileage totals are counted from August 1-31, 2020)

  • Included with Entry: BRS Bottle Opener Key Chain
  • 25% of goal: Slap Beer Coozie
  • 50% of goal: BRS Socks - Choice of Color
  • 100% of goal: BRS AZ Boco Hat

COSTS:
$45

*Add a t-shirt or tank top to your registration for an additional $20. 



WANT TO BE A VIP?
Life is busy and you may not make it to your goal but you want to still get all the swag then this is for you. Sign up to receive the key chain, coozie, hat, socks and t-shirt regardless if you make it to your monthly goal. 
Cost: $75

 
 

GETTING STARTED

 
After you have registered for the challenge:

Below are two steps to help you set your goal and log your miles this month.
 

STEP 1: JOIN STRAVA

If you're already on Strava, feel free to skip ahead to STEP 2

To create a new Strava account go here!
  • It's simple, free, and connects with MANY other running apps you may already be using. Read this article if you need help.
  • If you don't want to sync with another app, you can always use the manual entry in Strava.
Since a big goal of the challenge is virtual, social accountability, and interaction, we need you to use Strava in some way if you want to be on the Leaderboard and connected to the community.

PLEASE CONTACT US with any questions about this!
 

STEP 2: Authorize us to see your STRAVA progress


Each time you want to see your challenge progress, visit the August Challenge Homepage and sync your Strava miles to our Leaderboard by clicking the big orange button.
The FIRST time you do this, you'll be asked to submit your goal for the month. We'll use that to award your prizes. If you want to increase your goal mileage along the way, just click the gear icon in the top right of your miles.


Please note: in order to protect your privacy, you'll need to authorize each time you want to see your data updated in the Leaderboard.
