Sounds cool looking it up, I don't drive so I walk everywhere not so much on the running bit yet. I also work in elderly frail / nursing / dementia so I am on the front lines for a lot of the illnesses these charities support.0

I love Charity Miles! Its a great ap....I do find though that the distances can be off. So I dont use to to log my own personal miles...I wear a garmin too.0

Thanks for sharing! This will be even more motivation for me to log those miles.0

Interesting...thank you for sharing.
I linked my FitBit to the Walgreens Wellness program and have earned $15 worth of points in the last six months just from walking. I don't get prescriptions from Walgreens or buy much else there, but they don't seem to care.
I wonder how many other similar programs there are around that tie fitness to rewards of some sort.0 -

Would be good to know, it motivates me for sure. I'm currently also focused on getting out of the Green group on Nike Running. On 341km to go!0 -
Thanks so much for sharing! It was just the motivation I was looking for this morning as I was debating a run I donated $0.64 to She's the First (a non-profit I love) and got a nice run in. So excited to use this for every run and see how much I can donate this year.0

Yes, thank you. I don't do much walking/running, but maybe I will more often, knowing it's for a good cause. Motivation is a splendid thing!0

I hope this is legit! Downloading now
I'm just really passionate about giving back and especially about finding a cure for Parkinson's. We have lost 2 of my granduncles and 2 of my grandaunts on my dad's side, my grandmother has it (dad's mom) and my grandfather on my mother's side was diagnosed 2 years ago.
My dad passed away from a rare form of Parkinson's called PSP (Progressive Supranuclear Palsy). I am going to download this app. Also, psp.org is an awesome website.0 -

I'm sorry to hear about your father, I can only imagine as the people I have lost have been part of my extended family. Hopefully together we can make even the tiniest difference.
I'll check out that site. x0
