Why do the pupils need to complete 50 miles?
Pupils can achieve as many miles as they want, but 50 is a great target and should be encouraged. If pupils only do a small amount of miles, then they will not receive the healthy benefits and the great thing is that no child needs to be sporty to do it! Pupils of all shapes and sizes can do the Golden Mile, many simply walk round and talk to friends while they do it – but at least they are active!
