The point of the 40/120 challenge is to highlight the numbers of people every year who take their own life around the world.

In 2020 there were

800,000 people around the world who take their own life and this means one person every 40 seconds takes their own life. State of Minds roots are based in rugby league and union and during any game of rugby there will be 120 people around the world who take their own life.

That is why the 40 (one person taking their own life every 40 seconds) 120 (number of people taking their own life during every 80 minute rugby game) challenge is being attempted.

There are a number of ways you can attempt this challenge to suit your own limits to raise money for State of Mind Sport www.stateofmindsport.org

3. 40 days to walk 120 miles (3 miles or 5km per day)

4. 40 miles walking / running / cycling in 120 hours (5 days)

You can mix and match as many variations of 40/120 to suit your own needs
