Due to new interest we are reopening the Pony Express 1900 Mile Challenge. This is an honor based mileage challenge. Ride, walk, run, bike or hike (or carriage drive) to reach your 1900 miles. There is no set time limit to earn your miles. You may log your miles online with us, or you in a notebook or app. We have an honor based system. We do NOT count daily steps. This has to be on purpose, set aside time to COVER MILES. Walk a mile a day if you wish, or combine all the miles of riding and walking/running/biking hiking. This challenge was created to provide encouragement and support for on purpose, forward movement under either your own muscle power or your horses- or with your K9 best friend running along with you! There is a $65.00 entry fee for this multi year event that includes a limited edition PONY EXPRESS 1900 Mile Patch, limited edition PONY EXPRESS 1900 Mile sticker, a commemorative lapel pin and the completion medal that is a belt buckle! (sorry, we cannot ship buckles over
