51. Turning your miles into more (money) with Gene Gurkoff


Listen Later

In this episode we spoke about using our logged miles to do something good. All of us have running watches or some sort of device that enables us to track out progress. Well, there are a few option, and you don’t have to pick one. There are many ways to log your miles.
One option is to sign up with achievements, where you can log miles. Once you reach 10,000 points, you can get yourself a gift card or donate your miles to charity. Very simple, and here is a link: https://tinyurl.com/yheruj5s That is something really rewarding.
And if you wanna do even more, you can do so. There’s a company that allows you to log your miles with them, automatically, and those miles will earn $ for a good case. So we decided to interview Gene Gurkoff. Gene Gurkoff is the Founder of Charity Miles, a free iPhone/Android app that enables people to earn money for charity when they walk, run or bike. He explains the history of the company as well as how all this works. Gene himself has run 35 marathons and 6 Ironman triathlons to raise money for Parkinson's research in honor of his grandfather who has the disease.
