Make every mile count!
You’re no longer just going for a run, a walk, a ride, or a swim, you’re working towards conquering a fitness goal! Take on one of the Conqueror Challenges, which offer motivating options like walking the equivalent distance of Hadrian’s Wall or Land’s End to John O’Groats, each with their own awesome medal!
You participate in each Conqueror challenge through the mobile app, so there's no need to send emails or fill web forms to show your proofs of workout.
Get Britain Running Winter Challenge
Get Britain Running brings you a series of five leading virtual half marathons, where entry to any of the events unlocks a virtual Christmas market and fun for all the family. Run all five of the virtual events and you’ll get an exclusive Winter Running Festival medal!
There are two options for each of the challenges – you can either register for free and get a digital certificate at the end, or you can pay an entry fee and receive a specially designed t-shirt and medal. Entry into any of the events also gets you instant access to Realbuzz’s online Winter Festival.
Fancy the challenge? Then sign up today and choose SpecialEffect as your charity to raise funds for. We’ll be in touch after you register.
Build Your Own Challenge
Alternatively, you can design your own challenge – whether it’s walking, running or cycling. It could be a one-off activity or working towards a cumulative total over a period of time (eg. 5000 steps per day over a month).
You set the distance, time period and fundraising target you want – then set up your JustGiving page as part of our Virtual Event campaign and track your progress using the Strava integration app.
At the end, you’ll receive a special certificate from us!
"DONE!... It was worth it"
Sam completed a 5K challenge in his powered wheelchair at home, raising over £350 for our work by going up and down the length of his house - all 8.5 metres of it! That meant a lot of laps and it took him 1hr 27 to complete. His mum even made him a finish line to cross over!
