The challenge
11 different rugby football grounds on 3 machines, in one day – how’s that for a challenge?
With your help , we will either run, row or cycle, indoors in a gym to reach our target distance of 1000 miles – the equivalent of the Leicester Tigers home ground to a number of the chosen premiership grounds.

The participants
You…
You don’t have to be a keen runner, rower, cyclist – just someone with determination that wants to be part of this amazing challenge. The idea is to raise the money and awareness for our chosen charities under the “7events” and between us all we will raise an obscene amount of money (fingers crossed) for these great causes.
When is this happening?
Saturday 8th October 2016
Where?
Parklands Leisure Centre, Wigston Rd, Leicester LE2 5QG.
Want to join in?
We’re offering 30 minute slots throughout the day on each of the machines. You can sign up for as many 30 min slots as you would like to participate in. It can be one type of activity, a combination of two or all three. You must do the full 30mins on one piece of equipment so keep that in mind when you sign up, for example – you can sign up for a 30 min run, two lots of 30 min runs, or 30 min run, and 30 min on an exercise bike. Any combination that you wish and it can be spread out over the day or back to back.
Contact us through any of the channels below and we’ll get you booked in
