About Us
I'm Dai Powell, the Founder of Walking The Brecon Beacons and Cymraeg Fitness and I invite you to join me on The Million Steps Challenge 15th June 2020.
It's an incredible Feel Good challenge and something to be really proud of. Over 100 days, you'll cover 500 miles - that's equivalent to London to Zurich, 18 marathons or 8000 times around a football pitch! But it's your 10,000 average a day. It's a doable challenge if you set your mind to it!
I have teamed up with Cardiff based social good Start-Up MillionSteps.com to run the challenge. You can even support some charities who have been hit hard by CoVid-19. There are two ways to join, with a Million Steps Pedometer or using Google Fit or Apple Health.
When I set up Walking The Breon Beacons, I wanted to show the world the beauty of the National Park - and thousand of you have walked or even just enjoyed the pictures posted. I set up Cymraeg Fitness to bring people together to take on a more active lifestyle.
So join me on the Million Steps Challenge and let's Feel Good, Do Good and shake off those #LockDownBlues!

Why Take The Million Steps Challenge?
Why are we supporting The Million Steps Challenge? To shake off those #LockDown Blues and help some charities to raise £1000 - Lets Really Rock This!
2020 has been an unprecedented year. The CoVid-19 pandemic has caused a dramatic shift in our lifestyles. The lockdown, the uncertainty about our jobs or ability to pay bills and the worries about the future have brought distress to many of us. We know that physical activity can reduce stress and if there has been one lesson is that we as a nation need to get healthier.
Covid-19 lockdown has also been devastating for many charities. Many have lost almost all their funds as events are cancelled. Charities have a product - the service and help they provide in our communities. They support the most vulnerable in society and help communities grow.
Join us for a life-changing challenge and choose to help some of the charities to raise funds for the work they do. They include Recovery Cymru, Welsh Hearts, Boomerang Cardiff. My Discombobulated Brain, The Pie Project, Team Evie and Life For African Mothers and others.

The Million Steps Challenge:
Your Life, Your Challenge, Your Way™
Walking is great for our physical and mental health. But we tell ourselves we can’t find the time, we’re tired, we’ll start tomorrow.
But, big things can happen from very small beginnings. Walk, jog, run or even dance your way to a million steps. It all adds up to an awesome 500 miles!
Challenge yourself, compete with friends, and even raise money for a good cause. No more travelling to events, overnight stays, worries about training, expensive entry costs or high fundraising targets.
Sign up with Google Fit or Apple Health, sync your own devices OR use our full package* pedometer and app.
Every participant receives an introduction to mindfulness and strength and conditioning.
* Full package includes Bluetooth pedometer and specially designed app.
