The challenge is simple - 5km done your way, every day, over the course of a month.

You could take the family on a walk, head out for a run in the sun, or grab the goggles and go swimming! Whether you’re looking for a way to keep the family active this summer or you’re training for the season ahead, 5k a Day is your opportunity to challenge yourself, all for a meaningful cause.

The virtual challenge is free to enter and once you've raised £25, you’ll receive your free fundraising pack with a Cardiff City FC Community Foundation branded t-shirt. And if you smash your target and raise over £100, you’ll get a Community Foundation medal.

We also have some exciting prizes up for grabs for our top fundraisers, including a signed football and Cardiff City FC Community Foundation branded goodies. Sign up below!

Please note: You will need to keep a record of your daily 5km distance and share your stats with our fundraising team once completed.
