Join our gentle February walking challenge
A no-pressure walking challenge in Health & Wellness for February, open to every pace and ability.
February can be a long month. The holidays are behind us, it still gets dark early in many places, and motivation tends to dip. So in Health & Wellness we're running a gentle walking challenge for the whole month, and you're very welcome to join.
The idea
Pick a goal that feels achievable for you. For some members that's a thirty-minute walk every day. For others it's going to the end of the street and back three times a week. Every pace counts, and walking includes rolling: wheelchair users and anyone using mobility aids are just as welcome.
How to take part
- Post your goal in the challenge thread before the first of February.
- Check in once a week with how it went. Missed days are part of it.
- Share a photo from a walk if you like. Dog owners, we're expecting a lot of dog photos.
As always, if you live with a health condition or haven't been active for a while, check with your own doctor or physiotherapist about what's right for you before you start.
The point isn't the numbers. It's getting outside a little more, with people cheering you on while you do it.
