If you’re tiring of the same walking/running route day in and day out (or your doggo has sniffed all the sniffs there are to sniff on that route), embrace this final challenge: plot a course in the shape of a pet-related concept and take a new journey!

THE CHALLENGE: Walk or run in the shape of a concept related to animals (for example, a paw print, dog bone, and so on).

THE SUBMISSION: Use a tracking app of your choice (like WoofTrax, Runkeeper, etc.) and take a screenshot at the end of your journey. Eligible submissions may be sent to Second Chance:

  • VIA FACEBOOK: Make your own public post with your screenshot (and any other photos, such as a selfie on the run/walk), tag us (@SecondChanceNC), and use the hashtags #RacingForRescues and #PawPrintsForPets in your post.
  • VIA TWITTER: Tweet from your public account, attach your screenshot (and any other photos) in a single tweet, tag us (@SecondChancePet), and use the hashtags #RacingForRescues and #PawPrintsForPets in your tweet.
  • VIA INSTAGRAM: Post your screenshot (and any other photos) from your public account, tag us (@SecondChanceNCPets), and use the hashtags #RacingForRescues and #PawPrintsForPets in your post.
  • VIA EMAIL: Send an email to racingforrescues@secondchancenc.org with the subject line: “Paw Prints submission: FULL NAME” (for example, “Paw Prints submission: Rachel Cronmiller”). Attach your screen shot (and any other photos) to the email.

THE TIMEFRAME: Submissions will be accepted any time between May 6, 2020 and May 8, 2020.

THE WINNER: On May 9, 2020, we will announce the random selection of one registrant who submitted a screenshot, who will receive a $25 Amazon gift card. The winner will also be notified by email or phone and may choose to pick up their gift card at Second Chance, receive it via email, or have us mail it to you (though we assume no liability if lost by the postal service, nor will we be able to replace the gift card).

THE FINE PRINT:

  • One submission per person.
  • Please be aware of trespassing laws and your personal safety as you plot your route (for example, it would be a terrible idea to run across an interstate).
  • There is no specific length that the route must be—make it as long or short as you’d like!

EXAMPLE: A real-life (albeit quite long) route in Cary, NC:

Do you see what I see?
