It’s a fundraising challenge which you can do anywhere during Brainathlon Week (25th April – 1st May).
Walk 10 miles + Run 15 miles + Climb 1.2 miles (2,500 steps) = 26.2 miles to complete the challenge!
Complete Brainathlon all in one go, spread it out over the week, or get two friends involved and divide the challenge up between your team – it's up to you!
Registration is only £10 per person and if you raise £100 you’ll receive your specially commissioned Brainathlon medal. New for 2022, if you raise more than £500 each, you’ll also receive a reusable Brainathlon water bottle too!
Sign up
It’s simple, once you’ve registered we’ll give you all the information you need to set up a JustGiving page. We’ll give lots of support throughout to reach your £100 target.
The funds you raise will support three leading neurological research charities: Brain Research UK, Brain Tumour Research and Epilepsy Research UK.
Funds will be distributed equally to support research, improve outcomes and help people affected by neurological conditions, including epilepsy and brain tumours.
