The Green Miles Cycling Challenge encourages participants to log minimum 54 km or more in 54 days. All the activities can be tracked on the Fitistan app, with participants also offered the option of syncing their activity through supported trackers and platforms, including Google Fit, Apple Health, Health Connect, Strava, Garmin, Fitbit and Apple Watch. For every 1 lakh steps taken or 54 km cycled by the community, Fitstan will plant one tree; the overall goal of the campaign is to plant 10,000 trees.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe \u2018Ek Ped Desh Ke Naam \u2013 Green Miles Challenge 2026\u2019 has been well received by our&nbsp;community of more than 1 million members, who are spread over more than 1,000 cities and towns across India. For us, this is more than a fitness campaign \u2013 it is a national movement to encourage healthier citizens, cleaner choices and a greener India. The&nbsp;campaign resonates strongly with Fitistan\u2019s overall commitment towards not only contributing towards the creation of a fitter India but also giving citizens a platform to contribute meaningfully to the country,\u201d said Shilpa Bhagat, co-founder of Fitistan.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAll our initiatives are rooted in our desire for purpose over profit. And this campaign is an extension of that philosophy. For us, the idea of a fitter, stronger India begins with more responsible and participative citizens. By connecting visible impact with measurable actions, we want to plant the seeds of social and civic responsibility,\u201d said Major Surendra Poonia, co-founder of Fitistan.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To motivate participants through the duration of the challenge, a live leaderboard has been set up on the Fitistan app. Participants will receive a digital certificate of completion as well as a certificate signed by Honourable Governor General VK Singh \u2013 Former Chief of Army Staff, with their contributions recognised on Fitstan\u2019s social media platforms.
