Sustrans #Family1kaday Challenge
Pledge to get active as a family one kilometre every day for a week.
Take the 1k-a-day challenge and get your family to walk, run, cycle, skip, hop, jump one kilometre a day for a week.
At the end of your seven-day challenge you'll receive:
- a family certificate to mark your achievement
- a 20% off voucher to use in the Sustrans Shop.
Once signed up, your family challenge page will help you track your progress. Every day fills in another streak of the rainbow.
You can also share any photos and stories to remember how you completed your daily family kilometre.
How to take part?
Each family member can do their own 1k each day. Or, you can split up the distance and do it as a family relay.
Here are a few of our ideas to get you started:
-
Count your stairs and go up and down until you reach 1k. There are approximately 1,250 steps in a kilometre. For a family of 4 that would mean climbing 312-steps each!
-
Download a free pedometer app and do laps of your house and garden.
-
Work out a 1k route in your local area using Google maps and run, walk or cycle the route
-
Create an obstacle course around your garden. You can make ramps, a slalom and take it in turns to complete a lap on your scooter.
