Step back into the heart of history with our VE Day Virtual Challenge – a 20-mile journey from London’s Whitehall to the historic Battle of Britain Bunker at RAF Uxbridge.
Starting at The Cenotaph, Britain’s national war memorial, you’ll follow a path steeped in wartime legacy, from Churchill’s secret war rooms and the royal balcony of VE Day, to quiet memorials and pivotal military sites that shaped the outcome of the Second World War.
Every mile brings you closer to the stories of courage, sacrifice, and celebration that defined the end of the war in Europe. Mark your milestones with humorous, story-rich postcards, sent as you progress past each iconic waypoint.
Choose from a wide range of exciting challenges – climb Mount Everest, roam Tokyo city, or dive into themed journeys inspired by your favourite time in History.
Use your favourite fitness tracker or log your workouts manually on your challenge. Watch your progress move across the map in real time as you get closer to your goal
Every step you take brings more than just personal progress. As you progress, you’ll unlock fun surprises like virtual postcards and real life humanitarian incentives like planting trees and donating meals.
Finish your journey and get a custom medal and/or T-shirt shipped to your door- a real reward to celebrate your effort and keep you motivated.
