Help the environment

We will donate toward planting a tree or stopping 10 bottles from entering the ocean for every 20% of the challenge you complete.

There's no extra work or cost for you — just make sure you keep exercising!

By the end of the challenge, you will have planted 5 trees or have stopped 50 bottles from entering the ocean. Imagine what we can achieve as a community!

So far, we have planted over 7 million trees and stopped the equivalent of 14 million plastic bottles from reaching the ocean.
