Hints & Tips

for the Measly Mile challenge

Here are some suggestions to assist you in accomplishing your Measly Miles, twice daily throughout a 31-day month.
  1. Before embarking on the challenge, devise a plan for celebrating your accomplishment of reaching 100KM at the end of the 31 days.
  2. Embrace the challenge individually or rally your family and friends to join; having companions enhances the experience.
  3. Commit to capturing a photo or video during your walk. Share it and tag @measly_mile_challenge and include hashtag #measlymilechallenge to ensure daily accountability.
  4. Create a WhatsApp group with friends, sharing your daily Measly Mile photos to foster encouragement and accountability.
  5. Consider combining 2 Measly Miles in one session for days with limited outings, or break it into two walks if you’re homebound, ensuring a daily Measly Mile in each stroll.
  6. Support a meaningful cause by fundraising, and share your JustGiving page link to showcase your participation in the Measly Mile Challenge.
  7. Enhance your daily commute by opting for the scenic, longer route to and from work, making the most of the journey.
  8. Opt to leave the car behind for a walk to the shop and back, or tackle your Measly Mile in the morning and another in the evening, perhaps post-dinner!
  9. Incorporate your Measly Mile into your school run; extend the route if needed. Encourage the kids to join for some added family fun activity!
  10. Leverage your furry companions (we mean pets!) to clock in your Measly Miles with some enjoyable walks.

Above all, savour the moments and ensure a plentiful dose of enjoyment throughout your Measly Mile journey!

Lots of love, health & happiness,
