The community can also participate by posting to Facebook and Twitter by using #TreadmillTuesday or tagging @FirstCoastYMCA. A post-workout picture of the dashboard showing the distance must be included. 

The YMCA has an even bigger goal it wants to achieve with Treadmill Tuesday. It wants to inspire people to get up and get moving and to have them achieve the daily recommended 30 minutes of exercise.
