Beat the Heat with Vea & Win up to $1,000 in Prizes from New Balance, CORE Hydration
Ready to Beat the Heat? The next Vea Fitness workout challenge (August 1-September 8) is simple: walk, run or bike just 1 mile outside this summer (or escape the humidity by working out inside an air-conditioned gym for 20 minutes!) and we’ll hook you up with a FREE bottle of CORE water for every workout you complete!
Let’s face it - while summer is amazing for so many reasons, running outside in 90-degree temperatures can be less than enjoyable - it’s just so HOT!
To motivate you to keep it active throughout the hot summer months, and to remind you of the importance of staying hydrated, Vea Fitness has teamed up with CORE Hydration, New Balance and Philly-based fitness professional and wellness coach Rachel Rubin (@FitWithRachel) on our latest fitness challenge - BEAT THE HEAT.
Here’s What You Need to Know
From August 1 until September 8, we’ll reward you with a free bottle of CORE water for every one-mile walk, run, or bike ride tracked outdoors using the Vea Fitness app*, up to 5 days in a row.
The Challenge In Vea Apps: Open Vea App -> Select “Rewards” -> Choose an Activity (See “Run” highlighted in Screenshot 2) -> “Start Activity” -> Workout 20 minutes, walk/run 1 mile or bike 2 miles
Too hot for you out there? Understandable - you can also Beat the Heat inside the gym by using Vea’s “Gym Check-In” in with the Vea Fitness app and working out for just 20 minutes.

“Not only do I ‘Beat the Heat’ - I choose to be with it! Soaking up the sun feels so good on the mind, body, and soul, and a good sweat helps heal your health in many ways by releasing stress,” said Rachel Rubin, Personal Trainer, Corrective Exercise Specialist and Nutritionist. “Staying hydrated is extremely important, so challenge yourself to drink more water than you normally would - water is the your body’s most-needed nutrient source!”
