One million step challenge to raise money to fight diabetes

One million step challenge to raise money to fight diabetes

Now that Toby Lloyd has completed his coast-to-coast run and raised over £2000 for Manorlands, here’s news of another charity challenge from young Rathmell.

Reuben Eagle is going to try to do one million steps between the 1st July and the 30th September to raise money for https://www.diabetes.org.uk/.

To do 1,000,000 steps in three months, Reuben will have to average 11,000 steps (about 5 miles / 7 km) per day and though I can personally attest to the fact that he’s full of energy, that’s definitely a challenge :)

If you’d like to sponsor him and give him some encouragement when July comes around, he tells me he’d really appreciate it. You can donate via his profile on the diabetes.org website (is in his mum Lisa’s name, for reasons):
