Pilgrim Challenge 2025 now open for booking!

All 2024 events open for booking!

We are putting on this special one-off virtual event to raise money to support the refugee crisis due to the Ukraine conflict. As you all know millions of people have had to leave their homes and become refugees overnight.

We are going to run this event for 12 days, 20th March to the 31st March, to get us from Wendover in Buckinghamshire, where we live, to the Ukrainian capital Kyiv. Every penny we raise will go to the UK UNHCR which help refugees throughout their journey. Our target is to raise £10,000.

The virtual event is 2500kms across Europe. We hope to get there in 12 days but if I know our community we will get there and have time to spare so we will then either run back or join up other cities in Ukraine.

All you have to do is walk or run and record your distance on the event page either through connecting your Strava or Garmin or by entering your distance completed manually.

We will have a leader board running so we can see who has done the furthest.

We will be tracking progress live as every mile is entered online.

There is no entry fee for this event, just a link direct to our JustGiving page where you can donate to the charity.

We thank you for supporting this event.

We are delighted to support SheRACES and commit to providing a great experience for female participants. Find out more

How it works

  • Enter for FREE
  • Connect your Strava account (don't worry: you can also enter your mileage manually during the challenge)
  • Line up your shoes / layers for the start of the event on 20th March and challenge your friends to beat your distance (if you're competitive!)
  • GET MOVING! Anything on two legs counts towards the distance. Walking the dog, couch to 5k jogs, training or running an ultra - EVERY MILE COUNTS
  • Check your progress on our live leaderboard. Get your friends and family involved and see who can contribute the most miles!
  • Keep it going until the end of March, check in with us on Facebook for photos and social fun, and keep those donations coming.

Here's an idea: why not set up some challenges amongst friends, colleagues or family to see who can clock the most mileage during the 12 days? You'll be able to see your individual progress live on our challenge tracker page.
