# /sprint join

Join a reading sprint and log your starting page number. Use this command to participate in an active sprint and make sure your progress is tracked from start to finish!

### 💬 Usage

```
/sprint join <starting page>
```

* `<starting page>` – The page number where you’re starting for this sprint
