Elaine Wyllie MBE - Founder of The Daily Mile
The Daily Mile is important because it’s simple, scalable and sustainable. It’s inclusive and fun for the children, and it results in whole child improvement to their physical and mental health which is visible for all to see.
Sir Jim Ratcliffe, Founder and Chairman of INEOS
We know that the positive experiences we have at a young age shape habits for life - which is why it's so key to help young children enjoy getting active daily. Running is the simplest, most natural exercise you can do, it's fun and social.
Eliud Kipchoge, Ambassador for The Daily Mile
I love to run and want to inspire others to run too. Therefore, I am proud to be a Daily Mile Ambassador. I encourage schools to join The Daily Mile community, so together we can make this world a running world.
Year 5 Pupil at Cliff Lane Primary School
I enjoy The Daily Mile because it is a good opportunity to go out and get some fresh air. If you're physically active it also helps your mental health, you're just not staring at screens the whole day.
