Movin' 4 Missions

Step for a Month, Make a Forever Difference

Get ready to lace up and head outside—the Movin’ 4 Missions Step Challenge is back for another month-long celebration of movement and mission. Thanks to the incredible participation we’ve seen, we’re keeping the momentum going. Walk anywhere, anytime, and invite as many friends, family members, coworkers, and neighbors as you can. Every step helps change lives.

How it Works:

• Register to benefit one of four missions (Social Justice, Access to Education, Care of Retired Sisters or Greatest Need). Registration is $32 per person plus fees and taxes. (see additional pricing details under Participant Perks below)

• Sign up as an individual or join/create a team, and walk in person or virtually with them.

• Get friends, family, coworkers, neighbors and parishioners to support you with donations.

• Count your steps any time you walk or run during the month of May, and add your daily results to your team’s total online. You can log steps alone or with teammates in your neighborhood, at parks, on hiking trails—even on a treadmill.

• Be sure to snap some photos while you’re steppin’—especially if you’re sporting the new M4M T‑shirt design—and we’ll share them on the SSSF Movin’ 4 Missions Facebook page.

• Exchange high-fives when you or your team reaches the goal.

Participant Perks

Each participant can receive a Movin’ 4 Missions T-shirt (additional fee required) to wear while logging steps or anytime you want to show your M4M spirit. We have a brand-new Movin’4 Missions t‑shirt design, along with the option of a sunhat featuring the School Sisters of St. Francis logo. It’s a great way to publicize and promote the event! Orders for T-shirts placed by April 13th will be delivered during the first week of May. For orders placed after April 13th, the T-shirts will arrive later in May. If you choose to waive the t-shirt fee, the registration cost will be $10.00, plus any applicable fees and taxes.

And here’s something extra special for Movin’4 Missions participants: When you register, you’ll automatically be entered into two drawings to win a $40 voucher to use toward food or beverage at the Sisters’ Oktoberfest event on September 12, 2026. The first drawing will take place on April 13, and the second drawing will be held on May 1. Vouchers can be picked up or mailed to you. It’s our way of saying thank you for supporting the mission—and giving you a chance to enjoy even more fun at this cherished celebration.

How do I log my steps?
Go to the Results page and click Submit Virtual Results. Then search for your registration.  Click the Log Activities next to your name.  If you aren't logged in, you can quickly verify yourself by phone number or email.  Click Add an Activity and then enter the date and number of steps of your run/walk. Note: If you had multiple runs/walks in a day, you can enter each new run/walk by clicking the "Add Another Activity" button or you can aggregate them together for the day. Either works fine.  Don't forget to hit submit results when you are done.

I just logged some steps...why aren't the results updated?
It takes a few minutes for the results to update after you enter in a new activity.

I can't find myself in the participant list or the results?
Most likely you've checked a box on your RunSignUp profile that hides you from any public lists.  To change this, go to your profile and click the edit button. Then scroll to the bottom and uncheck the checkbox that says "Show as anonymous in public participant lists and race results." For more information, please see this helpful article.

How often do I need to log my steps?
As often as you want, but it's best to log them daily or every few days so you don't forget.  It's also cool to see your progress!!

What happens if I step MORE than my goal?
Your steps keep adding up!  If you reach your goal...then keep running or walking!  See how many steps you can accumulate during the challenge!

How do I modify or delete an activity I entered?
You can edit any of your entries at any time.  The easiest way is the next time you add an activity in RunSignUp look at the bottom of the entry screen. You will see "Previous Entries" and "Manage Activities."  Select manage activities and there is a button to edit any activity.  

Can I walk or hike to meet the distance goal?
Yes, absolutely!!

Can I complete more than one run/walk in a day?
Definitely.  For example, you could run/walk in the morning and then again in the evening and report them as two separate activities.  Or you could run/walk in the morning and go for a hike in the afternoon and report them as two separate activities.

Can I run or walk on a treadmill?
Yes, absolutely!!  

Do I need to run/walk all the steps at once?
No.  This challenge is NOT meant to be accomplished in a single run/walk (although you could), but rather in as many runs as you need.

How do I create or join a team during registration?
During registration, you will be asked if you'd like to join or create a team.  Simple select yes and follow the instructions.

How do I create or join or manage a team AFTER I've already registered?
Log in to RunSignUp --> Select Profile (top right) -->  Select the Manage Registration link in the Virtual Challenge section under upcoming races --> Select Group/Teams in the top navigation.  Then use the options on the page to create, join, or manage your team.  You can do all sorts of cool things like add members (if you are the captain), invite others to register, etc.

Do all team members have to have the same challenge goal (e.g., 125,000 steps)?
No.  Team members can have different challenge goals.  For example, one team member can do the 125,000 step challenge while another does the 175,000 step challenge.  RunSignUp gives you a great roll-up of a team's total steps in the Groups/Teams page.
