Once 50 million steps are completed, Fitness First will match the number of participants who took part in the challenge and offer the same number of free, 2-week memberships to frontline workers, to show appreciation for protecting the local community.<\/p>\n<p>Open to Fitness First members and the whole community at large, participants are required to update their daily step count via a link provided to the registered email. Any step can be counted no matter the distance and can be tracked on a variety of fitness tracking devices, such as FitBits, Smart phones, a Garmin Watch or Apple Health. For those without a tracking device, simply keep track of steps during the day, like walking to the kitchen to grab lunch, a grocery run or event steps during workout sessions. Daily step counts can be added to the Fitness First link every day, until a grand total of 50 million steps has been completed.<\/p>\n<p>All participants can track the progress of the \u2018Step Around The World\u2019 collective initiative by checking out Fitness First\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/fitnessfirstme\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Instagram<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/fitnessfirstme\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a>.
