500 Poppyfielders
£5000
500,000 miles
A simple, straight forward race to 500,000 miles! All we have to do is exercise everyday in 2016 and log our exercise miles. If we miss a day we pay a £1 fine to the cause (max £10 per month). Who's with me?
You define your exercise so it can be a 5 mile run or a 1 mile shuffle. It can be 10 press ups or a 2 hour weights session in the gym. It can be a Zumba marathon or a 20 mins yoga class. 30 mins on the exercise bike or 2 hours on the road in the rain! Its your challenge and your exercise so don't fret that you've got to break yourself everyday. Rest days are important and its easy to exercise on a rest day too.
The aim is for us all to improve our health and fitness and raise money to help improve the lives of others less fortunate than ourselves.
If you want to register and do nothing but pay a tenner a month then that's fine with me. Anyone can join at anytime so spread the word.

1. Pay a £5 registration fee at www.justgiving.com/PACT2016 or simply text PACT57 £5 to 70070. It's easier for us if you tick gift aid and tell us who you are in the message!
2. Exercise everyday in 2016 and pay a £1 charity fine for each day you miss (up to a maximum monthly fine of £10). Pay on the above link in a monthly lump sum or text PACT57 £1 to 70070.
