Walk to Makkah!
It is a great and fun way to commit to your health and fitness. Each participant walks independently at their own pace, time, and the place of their choice, but yet their miles are contributed to the team to help reach Makkah before Ramadan!
The Walk to Makkah Program Logistics
1) As one team, MIC members will walk a total of 6,614 miles.
2) The total miles walked is the actual travel distance from MIC to Makkah, Saudi Arabia.
3) The duration of the program is 10 weeks. We start the walk on Saturday, March 3rd and end the program on Friday, May 11th.
4) The minimum number of miles each team member is expected to walk is 10 miles per week. Any additional miles walked are encouraged and are contributed towards the team's total mileage crossed.
5) Every member walks at their own time and at their own pace, indoors or outdoors, and is responsible for keeping a record and reporting his or her total weekly walked miles every Friday by logging on to the following link:

6) On Saturday mornings, an e-mail will be sent out to update the team on its progress and the distance covered towards our final destination.
7) Each participant will be charged a $10 registration fee.
8) On the morning of Saturday, March 3, team members will be invited to meet at a local park to launch the Walk to Makkah Program by walking the very first miles, as a community, towards health and fitness. After the walk, we will meet at a local coffee shop for hot drinks/light snacks. The place and time will be emailed to all registered participants.
