How Far Can You Go? Winter Edition

How Far Can You Go? Winter Edition.

Have you ever thought about how far you can run in a month? Well, Every Mile Counts is giving you the chance to find out and to challenge yourself against other runners / and or teams. You can run outside on the trails, run on the footpaths or even inside on a treadmill – the choice is yours! Simply set yourself a target and go for it.

WHAT IS IT?
The Winter event starts at 00:01 (BST) on 1st January and ends at midnight (BST) on 31st January.

This is a virtual event, so you can run or walk wherever you like, whenever you want and as many times as you like within the month of January. To qualify, you must run / walk at least 31 miles in the month (that’s just 1 mile a day) and submit your results before midday on 1st February. You can include your mileage run during any other event you take part in during January – giving you your total accumulative monthly distance. If you don’t use Strava, you need to email us your total distance on February 1st to be added to the results which will be posted online once all have been verified.

Join our Strava club – Every Mile Counts, where you can become part of our community by posting updates, pictures and stories. We can also access your mileage from the Strava site, so it’s really easy.

Run Solo – Test your limits or take it easy! The distance you choose to run / walk is up to you.

Some highlights for entering Solo:
