The 100 Mile Challenge is a programme Active Cumbria has developed, supported by Sponsors New Balance. The idea is that school children record any activity they have done in the school year with the aim of reaching 100 miles, this can be done at school and outside of school encouraging the wider family to be involved. Some schools adopt this alongside the daily mile.
To date 153 schools have taken part equating to 21,949 children. An evaluation of the programme can be found at www.activecumbria.org/100milechallenge
