Following the remarkable uptake in our inaugural Strava Club Challenge for the 100k in May, we now move onto the EASY AS 1,2,3 JUNE WALKING CHALLENGE!!. With further relaxation of restrictions coming in June, it is a great month to push yourself further, explore new routes and get into good shape for the summer months ahead.
Join our virtual challenges, with 3 distances to choose from to be completed throughout the month of June, 100km which many achieved in May, push yourself further and aim for 200km which some managed, or go all out and reach 300km like a few hardy souls in May, so what is to be for You 1,2 or 3??
For all those who complete our June Walking Challenge we will have a draw for some Siul Eile goodies!!
As well as the challenge we will have training programs to keep participants on track and some tips to keep you going throughout the month via our Facebook page. So what are you waiting sign up for the June Challenge now!! Best of all it is FREE to join
What you need to do is:
If you haven’t walked with Siul Eile before, register for free at https://siuleile.com/register
Download the Strava App and use this to record your walking activities. The app is very simple to use. Press record when you start walking and stop at the end. Then press finish to confirm you are finished and save. You also have the option of adding some photos of your trek before you save it, we saw a fabulous variety of photos throughout May with hidden gems, wildlife, nature and panoramic views.
Once you have downloaded the app, join our club Siul Eile Strava Club
To find the club you might have to search via the explore button at the bottom of your page. If you can’t find Siul Eile immediately search in the clubs section: Select Siul Eile for club name, Tipperary for Location, in the next tab select Other and finally Club Type select All. Any activity you then do will be attributed to the Siul Eile Strava club. Every km counts so please record all walks.
