13 volunteers at Coventry Samaritans completed 310,000 steps (each!) in March
Participants were challenged to take 310,000 steps over the 31 days in March in a virtual event to raise funds for Samaritans.
With many of our usual fundraising activities being cancelled because of Coronavirus, the challenge was ideal as it could be completed individually. It also meant the event was open to people of all levels of fitness as they could choose how and where to complete their steps.
The challenge was designed to be "tough, but do-able". As one of the participants said "it was also fun, raised money and kept us fit. But I think we're all looking forward now to the day when we can really meet together for events like this, rather than just virtually!"
