You’ve still got BAGS of time to do your challenge – or even to START it and STILL aim to finish in 2021. Look at the numbers…
It’s one of the amazing things about #walk1000miles that despite that gigantic-seeming total, it breaks down into more than manageable increments – just 2.74 miles a day. The averages are remarkably forgiving – and though it’s a fundamental rule of the challenge that you give yourself 12 months from the day you decide to start, if you’re starting now, or you’ve already begun but feel like your miles are lagging it can be helpful to look at the 1 Jan-31 timeframe. Here’s what it tells us:
300 days
There will be 300 days left in 2021, as of this Sunday 7 March.
3.33 miles
You’d need to walk 3.33 miles a day, on average, to hit 1000 miles by the end of the year starting at zero this Sunday 7 March.
6m 39s
That’s how much extra you’d need to walk each day than the hour we say it roughly takes to hit 1000 miles in 12 months, if you start from zero on 7 March.
