The Erie Canalway National Heritage Corridor is inviting New Yorkers to take part in the free “February 15” Canalway Challenge.
Participants pledge to complete 15 miles walking, running, hiking, snowshoeing, or cross-country skiing anywhere within the Erie Canalway National Heritage Corridor by the end of February to earn rewards, including 15-miler crew socks, a sticker and magnet.
Participants can log miles at national, state and local parks, on the Canalway Trail, or even in their own neighborhoods. Registration is open to individuals, teams, and organizations looking to embrace winter, get active, and explore new places.
The “February 15” is part of the Canalway Challenge, which is open to people of all fitness levels and offers a range of mileage options, including 1 mile for people with mobility challenges, 15 miles, 90 miles, 180 miles, and 360 miles.
The Canalway Corridor includes 34 National historic landmarks and 234 local municipalities. A map and guide is available online.
