Pushing Boundaries, a non-profit organization providing intensive exercise therapy to people with paralysis, is partnering with Bellevue’s lululemon athletica for a month-long community challenge event and culminating day of fitness and yoga classes to raise awareness and financial support for Pushing Boundaries.

The “Walk a Mile in my Shoes” community challenge will take place Feb. 1-27. Challenge participants will be able to earn mileage by walking, running, hiking or snowshoeing. Contestants will keep track of their miles and inspire friends and family members to match their miles for tax deductable donations that will support Pushing Boundaries.

On Feb. 27, the challenge will be concluded by a Move Me day of fitness and yoga classes. The day-long event will also include presentations and inspirational testimonials from Pushing Boundaries clients from 9 a.m. – 2 p.m.

“We are so excited for the opportunity to work with such a fantastic business,” said Shawna Hanson, Pushing Boundaries Events and PR Coordinator. “Their involvement in our community is inspirational and is making a big difference in the lives and health of many people.”

All proceeds from the events will support the exercise therapy programs provided by Pushing Boundaries to people living with paralysis. Both events are open to the public. To register, visit the Bellevue lululemon athletica or go to www.pushing-boundaries.org/local-news.
