Take the 25 Mile Challenge

by Becky Parker

Will you be one of 1,000 people taking part in The Greenpeace new 25 Mile Challenge?

You can tailor the challenge.  Choose to walk, run, swim or wheel 25 miles, in a month, a week or a day. Starting on 23rd October, we’re challenging you to collectively travel 25,000 miles – the circumference of the Earth!

You can get a free Don’t Stop T-shirt and limited edition activity poster.

The 25 Mile Challenge is a virtual challenge, which you can complete in your own time and in a location of your choice. It launches on 23rd October  and you have until 30th November to walk, run, swim or wheel 25 miles.

It’s a fun activity to do with young people, family or friends this autumn. An opportunity to get outside, into nature and feel empowered to be doing something active to protect this beautiful planet we all call home.
