Work as a team or go solo to carry your chosen “Penguin Egg” (medicine ball from 1–12 kg or an adaptive ball) around the athletics track for 60 minutes.  You can complete 1 lap or 60 laps, or anything inbetween!  The aim is simple - to complete as many laps as you can while tackling fun strength, balance and coordination challenges along the way.

You can walk, jog, run or wheel and rest whenever you need, so set your own target whatever this may be.  No fitness level required.

Why We Do It

Every lap helps a child move and every step taken helps provide physiotherapy, adaptive sport and life-changing opportunities for children with physical disabilities across North Devon. Together, we can help every child discover what they’re capable of.

Raising awareness and raising funds for The Penguin Sports Foundation and supported by Jerk Training.

You can do more than you think 💙.
