It’s been amazing seeing everyone’s steps and progress throughout the month and I’ve loved being a part of it.  I’ve been truly inspired by the members who’s steps have increased each day edging towards the magical 9000 step mark.  I look forward to participating again and helping raise money for this amazing cause. Also a big shout out to all of the first responders who are always there when we need them.  It’s a thank less task and it’s great to know that there’s a support network such as The Code 9 Foundation that’s there when ever you need it!

So much emotional and mental baggage (aka: weight) left behind with each step I’ve taken this month, another huge bonus. I’ve said goodbye to 8.2kg this month alone and I definitely feel lighter (18.6kg down in total since August!) 

...it has been an honour to have participated for a second year, I have achieved 363,189 steps in 31 days & i will be encouraging family & friends to join me next year :) A huge Kudos to all those who participated & pushed beyond your limits to achieve your goals, you have all been encouraging, inspirational & I hope you all continue to keep achieving! My next goal is to complete 100km of running for Nov.

31 of 31 down. Challenge complete! 11,799 average daily steps, 266.79km total distance walked. And more importantly, $285 raised for The Code 9 Foundation 

Thank you everyone for the continued inspiration and encouragement.

We were inspired by my sister Julie Scollary, and thought we was time to get our lives back on track.. NO MORE EXCUSES! What started out as an attempt at 9000 steps per day (and a donation for a great cause) has turned running 3 to 4 times a week and at home workouts. I have found my love for running again, and my husband who never ran also loves running now. We have both lost weight, but most importantly gained control of our lives again! Thank you Julie and Thank you Code 9"
