3k for 30

My local health board & council run sports facilities have set up a challenge for people to do 3k of exercise for 30 days. It can include walking, cycling, running, canoing, swimming etc. One lady of 72 is opting to do it on a rowing machine in the gym. Just thought it might give some of you & any groups you are involved with an idea. I started a couple of days ago to ensure that as well as my jog Scotland and gym stuff I am doing something every day. I think the next challenge is 5k for 50 days!

Great way to focus your activity levels and broken down into sizeable chucks so it doesnt get too overwhelming. Especially for us newbies(week 3 for me).

I did 5x50 earlier this year with members of the C25K community which was very motivational, good luck with 3k for 30.

Youve inspired me to join a local pilates class. A great way to build in my strength training. Thank you.
