Monthly: Rules for the parkrun Challenge

What is the Monthly parkrun challenge?

Monthly is a calendar-collecting parkrun challenge with twelve simple slots: one for each month of the year. You'll need at least one recorded 5K finish in January, February, March and every other month through December. You can collect those months across different years and different event locations, so there's no need to maintain a twelve-month streak. The challenge rewards breadth across the calendar rather than how many times you attend in a single year. If you've already completed All Weather Runner under the usual rules, you've met the same month-based requirement. It's a friendly goal for anyone building a regular parkrun habit.
