Sprig Walking Challenge
Sponsored by
Join the 5th Annual Sprig Walking Challenge
at AAPD 2025 in Denver May 22-25!
It’s simple! The more steps you take, the more points you earn. Participate in some friendly competition with your peers as you work your way up the leaderboard and try to exceed the Sprig Walking Challenge goals to win prizes! In addition to competing as an individual, you can form a team and compete against other teams based on average points (3-12 members per team to be qualified). As further motivation, you can also see how you stack up against your teammates on the Team Leaderboard!
The Sprig Walking Challenge starts on Thursday, May 22 at 12:01 a.m. MT and ends on Sunday, May 25 at 9:30 a.m. MT.
