Taking a page from #JeffsBirthdayChallenge, https://rundemtrails.wordpress.com/2020/11/12/2020-jeffsbirthdaychallenge/ I’m going to have the first annual #DonnasBirthdayChallenge beginning in 2021! After all of the craziness that was 2020, I’d like to do something fun and different for my birthday this year but it will be a bit different from Jeff’s post. So what is a birthday challenge you ask, or more specifically, what is Donna’s Birthday Challenge?

I invite all of you, whether you run, walk, hike, bike, practice yoga, swim, dance, or however else you choose to move your body to get moving for your choice of one of the following: 2 miles/km, 4 miles/km, 24 miles/km, or 72 minutes (sure go ahead and do 72 miles/km if you want to really celebrate!). What’s the significance behind all of the numbers? I was born on the 24th of February in the year 1972. If you’re doing the math, yes, this is the last year in the 40’s age group for me.
Let’s celebrate the entire week of my birthday, so that means you can do your movement of choice any day from February 21 through February 27 (Sunday-Sunday). Then the best part comes- CAKE! Have a piece of your favorite kind of cake and share it with me on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/runningtotraveltheworld/ and let me know how you moved your body and for how long. Fun, right?
I can’t wait to hear how all of you helped me celebrate!
Happy birthday to me!
Donna

Love your challenge! Now hopefully I can remember about it. π
We’re born 10 days apart & 10 years apart. Stuff like that makes me giggle.
Happy pre-birthday, Donna!

That is a funny coincidence! I have a friend at work who is also almost exactly 10 years older than me. Happy birthday to you as well!

Happy early birthday.
Great idea.
Most likely at least 2 miles on your birthday. Weather depending.
Enjoy your cake.

Thanks, Darlene! I hope you’re able to get out safely and the sidewalks and roads aren’t too slick.

Happy Birthday tomorrow, Donna! Runners are the only people who look forward to “aging up”. π I am going to do your challenge tomorrow, I promise. I am not on Instagram, though and I don’t eat cake. You will just have to take my word for it!
