The challenge will run until July 26, and players will log all of the miles they run during workouts and any other activities.
Fans can also join the cause by logging miles. Any exercise that requires you to run, bike, walk, or even swim can count toward’s the Nittany Lions goal of 7,000 miles and will help to raise funds in Uplifting Athletes’ fight against rare diseases.
