World Mile Challenge kick starts Kids’ Athletics Day.

An exciting twist has been added to the 2024 Kids’ Athletics Day theme – the World Mile Challenge. In honour of the 70th anniversary of Roger Bannister breaking the four-minute mile on 6 May 1954, this year’s focus is on running, jogging, or walking a mile. World Athletics and its Member Federations aim to engage 500,000 kids globally to ‘Run the World’ one mile at a time. To encourage participants to ‘go the extra mile’, there will be a global ‘total miles run’ calculator clocking the miles registered in real time between 1 and 19 May so that all participants can track their collective progress.
