Just completed a busy November by earning 2 Virtual running medals . One for an individual 5k and the poppy challenge in honour of the WW1 anniversary. This was a minimum of 33k over a month . I achieved 306km running and walking

The medals are excellent and it’s great to have something to aim for and each medal which cost around £12 a percentage is given to charity

There are plenty to choose from on the site 👍

If you fancy a challenge this is for you

Thank you it’s a great site they work so hard to produce and get medals out . I only have a small collection at the moment but it’s quite additive !
