Step Up Your Game: The DGPT x 1st Phorm Challenge
If you’re an active disc golfer, you’ll know that endurance matters on the course. During each round of disc golf, the average golfer spends 93 minutes outside, taking 3,800 steps, and burning 400 calories (UDisc Growth Report). The result? A certified endorphin rush, some great exercise, and for many of us, a boost to mental health.
This August, the Disc Golf Pro Tour is teaming up with 1st Phorm to help you level up your fitness with a month-long community step count challenge.
The goal is simple: 10,000 steps every single day in August. Consider this your official challenge from the 1st Phorm team. Don’t think you can do it? We do! Hit the mark for all 31 days, and you’ll be entered to win a prize pack from 1st Phorm and DGPT.
