Register for the fitness challenge by May 1st.
Register with Williamson County Parks & Recreation for the May Marathon, and then opt to register with Williamson County Library to complete fun badges and enter into drawings for prizes!
The Challenge is to walk or run an accumulated distance of a half or full marathon during the month of May. Participants register with the Parks and Recreation Department at https://bit.ly/2021WilCoTNMayMarathon to receive the UT Extension Offices log sheet for tracking their miles daily. You can also enroll in an online challenge via the Library’s Beanstack program at http://bit.ly/2021MayMarathonWCPLS to be entered in the weekly prize drawings from the Library. Beanstack activities include reading audiobooks while walking or running, taking nature photos, and visiting different local parks with the opportunity to also earn virtual badges.
“We are all looking for ways to make exercising fun plus encourage people to read and explore Williamson County.”, said Jeffie Nicholson, Adult Services Manager. “There will be a weekly prize drawing for everyone who walks or runs 7 miles. People who complete activities in the Library’s Beanstack program can earn another entry towards prizes.”
This program is open to all Williamson County residents. Registration is free. Everyone will be asked to do a survey at the start and end of their challenge to evaluate any improvements and personal satisfaction with their progress. The challenge runs from May 1 to May 31.
