Campus Recreation & Wellness Calendar

An ultra marathon is a race defined as any running event longer than the traditional marathon race distance of 42 kilometers, or 26.1 miles. Every year, millions of people participate in these races across the nation. Running and walking are great cardiovascular exercises, targeting all the major muscle groups of the legs. Cardiovascular exercise promotes a healthy heart, lungs, and vascular system. This month, challenge yourself and begin getting in shape for the summer by running and/or walking as many miles as possible on any of the treadmills in the Fitness Center!

• When you finish, alert a FC Attendant to record your miles on the MOM board
• Participate as many times as you can

• The male and female who complete the most miles will win a $15 Mellow Mushroom Gift Card
