That’s 10 times as far as around the world (48,800,000 steps) so I think it would be a step too far!

All staff together managed to walk around the world in 36 days! Questions is where do we go from here? Do we try and get around again before teh 80 days is up or think of another target?

Top of Everest was mentioned although if that means I have to do all my steps up hill I might not bother!
