Challenge yourself! Looking for a reason the set a new goal? Do it for Lucas and spread the word about The Lucas Fund and how it helps babies and families at the University of Virginia Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.
Here are some sample challenges:
“I will do 50 push-ups a day for 50 days”
“I will run 50 miles in 50 days.”
“I will lose 5 pounds in 50 days.”
“I will not say a swear word for 50 days.”
“I will not drink beer for 50 days.” I think that would make me say a few swear words.
“I will drink a beer a day for 50 days.” Maybe the push-ups are a better idea.
“I will run 50 miles in one day.” You’ve gotta be nuts.
“I will shoot 50 free throws a day for 50 days.”
“I will read for at least 50 minutes a day for 50 days.”
“I will donate $50 to the Lucas Fund.” Now that is a superb idea!
Do you see the common theme here? Hint: it is 50.
It’s your challenge to yourself. Plus you can win cool stuff!
We have prizes from SKORA, NUUN, INKnBURN, àbloc Nutrition, Running Dad and ForLucas.com with more coming in.
All you have to do is challenge yourself and share your challenge on Facebook or Twitter with the hashtag #50ForLucas. Your name will be entered into a drawing for the sweet prizes which will happen on November 22, 2015. That gives you time if it is a 50 day challenge. Sharing your #50ForLucas challenge will earn you 5 entries into the contest. (Use the #50ForLucas tag with your challenge as many times as you wish, but only one from each site – Facebook and Twitter – counts toward your entries) You can also enter by using the entry method at the bottom of this page. Do both to earn the maximum number of entries.
WANT EXTRA ENTRIES?
Every $50 donation to the Lucas Fund gets you an additional 10 entries into the drawing. Add #50ForLucas in the message of your donation.
“What if I miss a day?” Hey, you are challenging yourself. Do what you feel is best – make it up, skip it, do extra the next day. Just be sure to share your challenge and help spread the word about the Lucas Fund. We are almost halfway to our goal of raising $50,000.
Rules: You must be at least 13 years old to enter and a resident of the United States. Limit one prize per contestant.
Me? I am running 50 miles in one day. Yes, I am nuts.

Great way to spread awareness for a good cause! Nice prize pack too!
I am in. Thinking up a challenge for my self now!! I already gave up beer so I am going to do something super special for Lucas starting Sunday!
Great idea! I am in marathon training mode so 50 miles in 50 days is totally doable. My daughters have been wanting me to walk after dinner every night and I am the worst on my off days from running of doing anything so I will be physically active for 50 minutes a day for 50 days. They will love that!
Great idea! Thanks for taking the challenge!
Looking forward to it and happy to be a part of such a wonderful cause!!
Ok. I finished squatting 50 for 50 days, and then some. I’m def up fit another 50 challenge
Great job!
I will wake up at 9:00 or earlier for 50 days
That works!
I did a double challenge. 25 days of lunging followed by 25 days of squatting…..everyday! I hit 100 days in a row, give or take a few.
You’re a beast! Plus you have more chances to win great prizes. Nice job!
Well, I didn’t make it, but at least I can say I gave it my best. I didn’t expect to need two full weeks to recover from a minor surgery, and I definitely didn’t expect to sprain my knee. However, my water goal went great, and now it’s a habit to stay better hydrated than I was before I started.
Since I didn’t meet my goal and can’t donate money right now, I’m going to dive into my massive yarn stash and knit a few preemie blankets to donate to the UVA NICU. Donated blankets were a comfort to my husband and I when my daughter was in the Winchester NICU after her birth.
THIS IS AWESOME! Thank you, Amanda!
