    Warm Up
    How to unlock:
    1. Create an account with RunKeeper
    2. Link your account to Foursquare (Settings > Apps)
    3. Download RunKeeper app (iOS or Android only)
    4. Log a run activity that is 26.2 miles (by phone)
    5: Distance needs to be at least 26.2 miles and not much over, 28 miles won’t unlock
    6. Travel at a realistic speed when "running"

    Unfortunately RunKeeper doesn't plan on having BlackBerry app.
    ALSO, MANUAL ENTRIES THROUGH THEIR WEBSITE DO NOT COUNT TOWARDS THIS BADGE

    This badge is fairly easy to get. Just start RunKeeper when you are going for a drive in the car. Stop RunKeeper when it reaches 26.2 miles and the badge is yours.

    Can I stop "running" at 26.2 miles, and save it, then sync activity with my WiFi when I'm home?
