My Challenge is to Run 2 kilometres EVERY DAY FOR 10 DAYS IN 2024

bg my challenge

My challenge is uncomfortable for me because...

Running this far every day makes my legs feel wobbly, and sometimes I get tired and want to stop. I might get sore, and the weather can be hot or rainy, which makes it even harder. I’m used to playing and running short distances, but this is a big leap!

But I’m doing it because I care about helping people who don’t have homes. Even though it’s uncomfortable, I know it’s for a good cause, and that helps me keep going. I hope you’ll support me and the people we’re helping along the way! Thank you!

Banjos Uncomfortable Challenge Complete

Tuesday 29th Oct

Day 10

Tuesday 29th Oct
Today, I was eager to finish my Challenge so got out the door early to do my final 2km. My body is very sore and tired but I completed my run. And that's a wrap for my uncomfortable challenge. A total of 26km run and 17.6km ridden, and a whopping $9295 raised so far. Lessssggoooo!!!! 

Day 9

Monday 28th Oct
I really really did not want to run today. Mum bribed me to start on the treadmill, which I got bored after 400m. We then moved to run laps of the driveway (60m a lap). Soon I had completed 51 laps of monotonous running up and down. Another 3.06km added. A total of 24km run. 

Day 8

Monday 28th Oct
I am in a tough spot at the moment. My legs are exhausted but I'm doing a good thing so I just keep going. Another 2.5km completed. 

Day 7

Sunday 27th Oct
Another 2.5km completed today  My legs are sore and body is tired but I'll keep going. 

A total of 18.4km completed. 

Day 6

Sunday 27th Oct
Today was a long day. Started with daycare at 630am and played oztag at 420pm. Once I finally got home, I set out for a 2.4km run and decided to back up and do another run of 1.5km just before bed... Lessssgooo! 

Day 5

Thursday 24th Oct
On day 5 I headed to the athletics track to complete my run, alternating my run direction after each lap. A total of 2.4km completed today. Lessssgooooooo!!! 

Day 4

Thursday 24th Oct
Day 4 started with a sunny 2km run at Balmoral Beach in the morning and with a burst of late energy after dinner, Banjo opted to finish off the day with a short bike ride. This short ride ended after a not so short 10km distance. 

Day 3

Tuesday 22nd Oct
To top of a very busy day at the Zoo, my tired legs pushed hard to go my furthest distance so far.... 3km added, taking it to a total of 7.6km at the completion of day 3! Lessssgoooo

Day 2

Tuesday 22nd Oct
Day 2 was a run at Grandi and Poppy's house and another 2.2km in the bank!!!
