Record year as 2024 Challenge comes to a close
Congratulations to everyone who took part in the second edition of the Westminster Women Winter Weekends challenge! We saw many new faces take part alongside some of those who joined us in the inaugural challenge.
2024 saw a record number of participants with over 160 Westminster Women take to the streets to walk, jog, run over 15,314km over the weekends of January and February (The same distance as the UK to Australia!). This monumental distance covered meant that over 450 rewards were sent out with everything from beanies, to tote bags to medals being unlocked.
Over the course of the challenge we saw a 26% increase in the individual average distance completed from Challenge 1 to Challenge 8. There was also a 75% increase in the total distance completed from the first weekend to the last with over 2000km completed in the final weekend alone.
The journey doesn’t end here for our 2024 cohort with several places to carry on this momentum including ActiveWestminster who showcase the best of Westminster’s sports clubs, groups and facilities. We’ve also listed many other local groups and clubs looking for new members with plenty of walks and meet-ups planned for the near future.
Watch this space as we look to come back in 2025 even bigger and better! There’ll be new rewards and new challenges and more records to be broken! If you want to be part of next year’s challenge, then registerer your interest here.
