You don’t need to hit 10,000 steps a day to get fit and healthy

Glen Pilkington feared he may never experience the outdoors again after one terrible day in 2020. But Walk1000Miles and Glen’s fellow challengers have helped bring back his health and his joy of living.

In every issue we invite you to spice up your miles by doing something fun, curiously specific or just plain daft. The lucky few who appear on these pages each win a money-can’t-buy golden badge! (New challenges over on the right.)

Meet our brand new medals for 2026 – and order yours today!

Every run is a win I’m sitting here ...

Setting your fitness agenda isn’t a once-a-year opportunity. Now January is well and truly over, we show you how to make your exercise goals a reality, now and for the future
