Share the Miles
Every kilometre you ran with a mate earned one entry into the prize draw. Solo runs didn't count, and the whole thing doubled as a community fundraiser for Speak & Share.

Bring a mate. Every time.
Run with at least one other person and every kilometre you covered was one entry into the prize draw. Run 10km together and you earned 10 entries.
Entries came from your own distance only, so you couldn't claim your partner's kilometres. You could log one run a day, in one continuous effort at 13:00 per km or faster, with a photo of you and your partner at the start and another at the finish.
49 runners. 3,044km. None of it alone.
That's 269 runs, every one of them shared with a mate. Here's who ran the furthest with company.

Solo miles didn't count.
Every run had to be shared, tracked and logged in the Harry's app, one a day. Any of these and that day's entries didn't count.

Didn't countTracking & Submission
- GPS wearable: Apple Watch, Garmin, COROS and the like. The GPS map or route, heart rate, pace, cadence, distance and elapsed time all had to show.
- Upload a screenshot of your activity summary, a Strava link, or both. The link was the preferred way to verify.
- The Photo Rule: one photo of you and your partner at the start of the run, and one at the end.
- Your partner didn't need to upload their data. To earn their own entries, they registered separately and used the same shared photos.

Running with someone else is one of the oldest tricks for getting out the door. It's harder to skip a run when a mate is waiting for you, and the kilometres go quicker when you're talking.
A partner challenge builds that in: the run only counts when you share it. It turns training into catching up, and it's a good excuse to get a friend who's never run with you to give it a go.
Each runner still logs their own distance, so you're both earning your own way, side by side.
- Running buddy
- The mate who keeps you honest and gets you out the door.
- Shared run
- A run you do together, start to finish.
- Accountability
- Turning up because someone is counting on you.
