IRMA+ How many times can you run your age?
A special prize for the most run.
Over the six weeks of the summer break from school, (22nd July- 29th August ) can you run enough miles to match you age? If you are seven years old that means running just over one mile each week. If older you will have to do more.
This is how it works
