Event - Essex Police Benevolent Fund 4K a Day Challenge 2027

About

Join colleagues, friends, family members and supporters in the Essex Police Benevolent Fund 4K a Day Challenge 2027.

Running from 01/01/2027 to 31/03/2027, participants are challenged to complete 360 km over three months, the equivalent of an average of 4 km per day. Whether you choose to run, jog or walk, every kilometre contributes towards your personal goal whilst helping raise funds for the Essex Police Benevolent Fund.

The challenge is open to all fitness levels. You do not need to complete 4 km every day; simply accumulate your distance throughout the challenge period in a way that suits your lifestyle, fitness level and work commitments.

Participants are encouraged to join our Strava community where they can track progress, celebrate milestones and support fellow challengers.
