Get moving this June for new virtual challenge

15 April 2026

The challenge will see people working together to collectively travel the distance around the globe, aiming to cover over 40,000 miles in just 30 days.

The virtual route will pass through more than 30 countries and 60 iconic cities, with key milestones along the way including the Eiffel Tower and the Great Wall of China. The digital route will start and end at Katharine House Hospice.

Roseann Thompson, Community Engagement Manager at Katharine House Hospice said: “After the incredible energy, dedication and community spirit our supporters have brought to our events before, we’re excited to be launching this brand new virtual challenge.”

“Pace Around the World is all about coming together to do something and has been designed so that everyone can take part. Whether you walk, run, wheel, cycle or swim, every mile you log helps move us further along our journey, all while raising much needed funds for Katharine House Hospice. It’s flexible, fun and you can take part wherever you are, at your own pace.”

GRAF UK are the headline sponsor for this event.

“As a team, we love a challenge and even more so when it means raising money for our local hospice, so we’re delighted to be the headline sponsor for this new event. We’re already thinking about different ways we can help to smash this team target and hope many other local businesses and teams will get involved!” – Callum Vallance-Poole from GRAF UK
