Bitter Root Land Trust is off to the races, sort of. BRLT started a Fall Miles Challenge on Oct. 11, literally running through Nov. 11, with a goal of 2,500 total miles. Participants can reside anywhere and still participate, and can participate on foot, high in the saddle, on the seat of a bike, and even swimming.

       From the BRLT website: Upload your active miles for conservation and help us meet our 2,500 mile goal! Miles can be uploaded on a daily or weekly basis. Prizes will be awarded weekly for participants at random as well as to our top performers! If you have questions, please call our office at 406-375-0956 or stop by our office at 170 S. 2nd Street in Hamilton.

     And there are prizes! A BRLT Facebook post from Oct. 18 reports the prize for the week ending Oct. 24 was a box of swag and running accessories from The Runner’s Edge.
