Event Description
During the month of April, join Team with A Vision and United in Stride, programs of the Massachusetts Association for the Blind and Visually Impaired for a month long walking and running distance challenge across the country in an event that will bring us all together and surely get us moving!
Over the course of April's 30 days, you and your team will be accruing as many active miles as you can, while virtually traversing the country. All participants will have the opportunity to complete the challenge as an individual or as a member of a team with friends and family both near and far.
As part of the Coast 2 Coast Distance Challenge, we will be raising funds for Team With A Vision and United in Stride. Prizes (and bragging rights) will be awarded to the teams/individuals that record the most mileage in April as well as for the team/individual that raises the most money. So whether you are running fast or walking to enjoy Springtime, plan to reconnect and join us this April!

**Important Items To Note**
-
Exactly 4 people per team including the captain. Team captains should sign up first to create the team and then invite the other 3 teammates to register once created. Once the other team members are registered, they will be able to log their miles.
-
Captains will recruit 3 other team members, helping with registration and communication b/w UIS & TWAV, and ensuring team members log their miles daily.
