About the Beat the Bay State Team Challenge

This is a virtual challenge, not a course with a start line. Participants log miles from wherever they are, contributing to a team total that traces the perimeter of Massachusetts. You can run, walk, or mix both, and the pace and place are entirely up to you. The event runs for a full month and benefits WalkMassachusetts, an advocacy group focused on pedestrian safety and street access.
