This is a challenge for all ages and abilities. All you need to do is think of an activity based around the numbers 26 or 2.6 that suits your skills and complete it on or from Sunday 26 April.
This could be something as simple as pledging to run 2.6 miles as your daily exercise to doing 26 species-inspired yoga poses or juggling for 26 minutes (or maybe just 2.6 minutes) non-stop. More ideas and inspiration.
And don’t worry if you’re not able to get out your house or flat for now – you can do
your 2.6 challenge anywhere inside too! There are no rules, apart from the Government guidelines on how to exercise safely during this time. Whatever you can do, you can be a part of it – the main thing is to get active, have fun and pledge whatever.
