About the Mile - 1. The Mile


The Sainsbury's Sport Relief Mile

Enter your nearest mile now!

On Sunday 16th March you can join tens of thousands of people and take part in the ultimate Sport Relief challenge.

This year there are 23 huge flagship Miles up and down the country where there'll be celebrity Milers running alongside you, BBC TV cameras to capture the action and great entertainment for you, your friends and your family to enjoy!

In total we've got over 200 Mile events taking place across the UK so there’s bound to be one near you.

To help you really rise to the challenge and raise lots of cash there are three distances up for grabs.

Comic Relief spends the money you raise helping vulnerable people both at home in the UK and across the world’s poorest countries.

Rosa 30, Brazil

Ever fed your kids rubbish? Rosa did. Literally.

We used to live on a rubbish dump and often had to eat the food we scavenged there.

Thanks to money raised though Sport Relief we now live somewhere much safer and my kids get to eat a nutritious meal every day.
