Healthy Adventures
Welcome! Be one of the proud who can say, “I hiked, biked, or ran all around my Stark Parks” by challenging yourself to one or more of these healthy adventures! Whether your goal is 50 or 500 miles, we welcome you to join us or log miles on your own!
When you register to become a Healthy Adventures member, you are automatically in all three clubs. There is no requirement to log miles in all clubs. Choose the activity (hiking, biking, running) and log your miles accordingly in the appropriate club column. See the video for more instructions.
All three Healthy Adventure clubs can record ALL mileage completed ANYWHERE. (That includes neighborhoods, sidewalks, fields, private property with permission) If you are logging your miles outdoors, enter them as you normally would using the buttons below.

2021 Wrap Up
The deadline for 2021 mileage entry was Sunday, January 9, 2022. The 2021 awards will be a lot different this year, in hopes to eliminate waste. We will offer 5-10 raffle baskets that members can put their names in for a chance to win. Remember, the leather key fobs are only for those members that reach the club goal mileage. You will be able to pick the fobs up at the Exploration Gateway in late January 2022. More information about the fobs and raffles will be released soon.

100 miles on foot is quite a feat!
Just think about an average of two miles a week and you reach the goal! The miles fly by once you get going, especially if you join in on our fun group hikes.
Running 150 miles in Stark Parks should provide different scenery or a chance to find new and undiscovered areas. Since we manage just over 100 miles of trails, you won't have to see the same areas too many times or maybe you will be able to run them in your sleep!
You will appreciate the places your bike takes you and how comfortable, or uncomfortable, the seat is while achieving this 250-mile goal. Enjoy your time on the wheels breezing down the trails.
