The City of Shoreline’s 2nd Annual Million Step Challenge at Paramount School Park is half way over but there still are plenty of steps to go to reach the 2015 goal of walking 2,600 collective miles during the month of May.
That’s the same distance it takes to walk from Mexico all the way to Canada along the Pacific Crest Trail. The community is encouraged to walk as many laps as possible around the loop path at Paramount School Park (8th Ave NE and NE 155th St.) and log them on the tracking sheets out at the park or online
“As of May 18th, we've made it 840 miles which is amazing progress. But we still have a long way to go and need everyone’s help,” says Patty Hale, board member for the Ridgecrest Neighborhood Association.
Along with helping build a healthy community, the event is also a competition with great prizes that will be awarded at a community potluck on Sunday, May 31st at 6pm.
Top prizes include a 2 month membership to Crossfit Hailstorm. More information can be found online or call Marianne Johnson, Recreation Assistant at 206-801-2638.
