10,000 Steps a Day in January
We are challenging you to take 10,000 steps every day in January. Where and how you chose to walk each day is up to you!
Join 2500 trekkers as we venture 25km across the capital taking in unrivalled views of the skyline from its best vantage points.
Setting out from Putney Bridge, we’ll head east towards the city, zig-zagging over the array of historic bridges – each with its own fascinating story. 25km later, there’s a finish line celebration in Southwark near the majestic Tower Bridge.
Your entry includes free food and drink at regular rest stops, plus support including medics, marshals and massage. As you cross the finish line, you’ll get a glass of fizz, t-shirt, and a medal to commemorate your achievement, before heading to a BBQ and a well earned rest.

Lottie and Frankie, who completed the Thames Bridges Trek in honour of their grandparentsWe think this walk is a great starting point for future, longer treks. We’ve grown up around here and want to get to know the historical bridges better. There’s loads to see, and there are a lot more bridges than we thought!
