How to Log Your Activity
We are thrilled to have you join us for the Feds in Motion Challenge! We want to express our gratitude to our sponsors who have made this event possible and who share our commitment to supporting the federal civilian community.
The Feds in Motion Challenge utilizes the RunSignup platform to make logging your activity throughout the 37 day challenge easy and convenient. There are several ways to log your activity and with the flexibility to move in your favorite way, you can tailor your participation to your unique needs and goals.
But this challenge is about more than just logging miles – it’s about building community and supporting one another on our journeys towards better health. We encourage you to engage with your fellow Feds in Motion participants, share your experiences and tips, and cheer each other on.
Remember, any amount of movement can benefit your mental and physical health, so let’s make the most of this opportunity to prioritize our well-being and have fun while doing it! We can’t wait to see the positive impact we can make together.
We have some step by step instructions below. We also have a new feature from Scribe that walks you through an easy way to log your miles.

Two common formats of data are GPX and FIT, which services like Garmin and Strava use to store activity data.
