Hi – I botched our team’s registration a bit and ended up entering two Rosie Cheeks/Rosiecheeks entries. My kms are logged under Rosie Cheeks – can you please combine the two so it appears as 1 team from Minnedosa with 5 members. Our total combined was still 405 kms which rocks! And is mostly due to our member Holly Morrison who walks lots everyday, no matter if it’s -50! She’s retired, tho, so has a lot of time to walk. Even so, she has lost a lot of weight this last year due to her walking. Hope she wins a prize!
Hi Lori, thanks for reaching out to us. Congratulations on a fantastic Jack Frost Challenge kilometre total!
We have reached out to you via email, hopefully, we can help sort things out for you.
Thanks for participating!
