Announcing the Friends of Pathways Commuter Choice Challenge! 

http://challenge.friendsofpathways.org
Friends of Pathways invites you to participate in its inaugural Commuter Choice Challenge program between June 1 and September 30!

What it is:
Commuter Choice Challenge is a summer-long initiative that encourages community members to choose non-motorized forms of transportation for their business and personal commuting. The Commuter Choice Challenge functions just like last summer's Go By Bike; we've just changed the name to be inclusive of all forms of non-motorized transportation. Program participants log their commuter miles online and have the opportunity to compete against friends and win cool prizes - all while saving money, burning calories, and helping out the environment!

How it works:

1. Take 30 seconds to register at http://challenge.friendsofpathways.org. If you wish to participate on a team (typically your place of work), create a team on the website and log miles as a group. The first 10 people to sign up will win free Friends of Pathways socks, and the next 10 will win free Friends of Pathways t-shirts!
2. With your online account, you can log miles for any daily commuting you do - whether for work, running errands, or just to socialize.
3. As you and other participants log your miles, our website will show you real-time stats: how many trips you've made, miles you've ridden, calories you've burned, gas money you've saved, and CO2 emissions you've eliminated. New to our website this year: you can sort by number of trips, not just miles.
4. Not only will you be able to see your own stats, but you'll be able to compare and compete with other riders and teams from like-sized organizations. There are categories on the website for walking, cycling, and other non-motorized forms of transportation.
5. Our website blog will keep participants up-to-date on program info and weekly competitions.
6. At the end of the summer, we'll throw a big party with lots of great prizes for participants.

Please sign up today for Commuter Choice Challenge
and encourage your family and friends to do the same!
It's FREE and a fun way to track your non-motorized commutes throughout the summer.
