Can you cover 50 miles in a week? Then join RAFA Virtual 50!

The walking, running, rowing or cycling challenge is back for 2021.

After the huge success of the Pathfinders Challenge 2020, organised by personnel from RAF stations in the UK and overseas, the challenge is on again.

RAFA Virtual 50 challenges you to complete 50 miles in just one week, or less if you’re feeling particularly energetic. You can cover the miles in whatever manner you see fit, just as long as it doesn’t involve an engine or a motor. If you fancy cartwheeling while dressed as Biggles, then go for it!

Why would you want to do such a thing? To raise money for the RAF Association, of course. The challenge is on from 26 July to 1 August 2021, so you have a bit of time to get training and get fundraising. You can join the challenge as an individual or why not get a team together and challenge each other too? Everyone who signs up and raises money for the RAF Association will get a free RAFA Virtual 50 t-shirt.

Over 350 people have already signed up from around the UK and overseas. Join individuals and teams from Romania, the Falklands, Cyprus and the USA in this great 50 mile challenge.

Check out the video below to see how our supporters got on last year!
