Join us with the 2.6 Challenge from Sunday 26th April 2020 to help to save the UK’s charities.
The 2.6 Challenge will launch on Sunday 26 April – what should have been the date of the 40th London Marathon, the world’s biggest one-day annual fundraising event.
We’re asking you to take part in an activity of your choice based around the numbers 2.6 or 26 and fundraise or donate to support the 999 Club via twopointsixchallenge.co.uk.
People of all ages are taking on The 2.6 Challenge with a host of activities – from walking, running or cycling 2.6 miles, juggling for 2.6 minutes, to holding online workouts with 26 friends and taking the dog for a walk. The ideas and options are endless!
The only requirement is that you must follow Government guidelines on exercise and social distancing. Most people are taking part from Sunday 26 April but you can do your activity whenever is most convenient for you.

There are just five simple steps to take:
- Dream up your 2.6 challenge
- Click here or on the button below to get started >>
- Ask all your friends and family to sponsor you and challenge them to do their own 2.6 Challenge
- Complete your challenge
- Share a photo or video of your challenge on social media with #TwoPointSixChallenge and with us
For further information on The 2.6 Challenge, including a list of partners and supporters, and for more ideas about what your activity could be, please contact our fundraising department.
We hope you’ll join the nation in The 2.6 Challenge to support the 999 Club and help to save the UK’s charities.
Whether you decide to run up and down the stairs 26 times or do 2.6 miles running round your gardens, you can track your activity on Strava and post straight to JustGiving.
