Story

The challenge is to complete 62 miles during October.

How you reach your miles is completely up to you!

Spread them out across the month or go further on weekends. It’s your challenge, your way. 💙🧡

Whether you run, walk, or jog through crisp autumn air, every mile you cover and every pound you raise will help us continue supporting those living with and affected by diabetes.

More than 5.8 million people in the UK are living with diabetes-a record high.

We are Diabetes UK. When diabetes leaves you with questions, our research is uncovering new answers. We won’t stop until we find a cure.

Rise to the challenge and join 62 Miles in October today! 🍁👟
