Sweat Pledge
PLEDGE TO ACHIEVE A FITNESS GOAL, SWEAT TO ACHIEVE THAT GOAL, AND THEN INSPIRE AND BE INSPIRED BY THE REST OF THE SWEAT PLEDGE COMMUNITY.
August 23, 2017
A Sweat Pledge is a promise of exercise that you can either make for yourself or to support someone else. So you can set yourself a challenge and then ask others to pledge their own goal to support you, a bit like Just Giving but with sweat instead of money.
The brainchild of local athlete and Guiness World Record holder Kajsa Tylen. In 2016, Kajsa set a new Guinness World Record for the furthest distance cycled in a year by a woman, with a distance of 52,025 km, or 32,326 miles. Rather than raise money for a charity that encourages activity, Kajsa decided to encourage people to make donations of sweat instead, and during the year she encouraged 1000s of people to be more active and achieve physical goals they never thought possible.
When you sign up to Sweat Pledge you will have the opportunity to say who inspired you on your fitness journey, then make your pledge and upload photos, milestones and blog posts which show your progress. As you work to achieve your goal, you will be inspiring other people which will help you spur you on too!
