Week 4: Family 1K a day challenge

Sustrans free 1k-a-day challenge

Can you walk, run, cycle, skip, hop, jump 1 kilometre a day for a week? 

Our friends at Ultra Britain have set up a virtual challenge for families. 

Track your progress. Share your photos. Get active together and get a certificate to mark your achievement.

You'll also get a 20% off voucher to use in the Sustrans Shop.  

Sign-up as a family to the 7-day challenge.

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. 

Instructions

1. Sign up to the Family 1k-a-day challenge. 
2. Choose your start date.

4. Track your progress on your challenge page.

Once you've reached the end of your 7-days we'll send you a personalised family certificate you can print off.
