The challenge

Team up with your furry friend and walk a marathon (26.2 miles) between 1 and 31 August. Raise money so we can provide a bed and support to over 3,200 people experiencing homelessness each night.

You can take on this paw-fect challenge anywhere, in your own time and at your own pace. Whether you walk a mile each day for 26 days, two miles every other day for 13 days or any other combination you choose to reach your target. It’s your challenge - so you decide when and where you clock up the miles!

It's completely free to register, but we encourage you to raise £50 to earn your St Mungo's dog bandana, so you can both look the part while out on your walks! Ask friends and family to sponsor you and help us get one step closer to ending homelessness for good.
