Planning my challenge FAQs
Do I have to pick 27 or 100 miles?
No. Some people choose a distance that is connected to their own neonatal care experience.
How can I cover the distance I've chosen?
We know our past fundraisers choose this event because they have the freedom to fit this challenge around their life. So choose what works for you. It may be that you want to do shorter distances on some days, and longer ones on days where you'll have more time to go further.
For example:
- Run 1 mile every day for 4 weeks to complete 27 miles
- Walk 3-4 miles every day for a month to complete 100 miles
- Cycle for 8 miles 3 times a week for a month to complete 100 miles
You can also use a fitness tracker to run or walk the same distance in your home or garden.
