A HUGE Thank you to Timpson!
Look out for your Timpson offer… Once you have recovered from your MoonWalking challenge, take your medal to any Timpson shop in the UK, show them your Voucher, and they will engrave the back of your medal with your Name and your Finishing Time for just £5.00 (normally £10.00 – £15.00)… making happy MoonWalk memories!
Your All Weather Poncho… an important piece of kit
Don’t forget your all Weather Poncho… It might look like a bit of plastic (biodegradable of course) but this is a truly amazing all-rounder bit of kit and is good for wet, windy and cool weather.
If you do begin to feel cool, wearing an all-weather poncho can warm you up in no time. Wear it over the top of your fabulously decorated bra, or MoonWalk T-shirt and if you still feel cold after walking for a few minutes, belt your bumbag over the top to keep the plastic close to your skin. As I am sure you know, most of your body heat is lost through the top of your head, so, put the poncho hood up underneath your cap, and you are guaranteed to feel warmer within minutes!
If you have already used the one we sent to you whilst training, or you forget it on the night… We will have limited stock available for a minimum £3.00 donation.
Even if the MoonWalk weekend daytime weather is warm, tiredness can make you feel cold, even when the sun is shining!… Make sure you bring a few extra layers including a long-sleeved sweatshirt that you can tie around your waist, so you have something to put on as soon as you need it. Plus, even if the morning is gorgeous, when you finally reach the Finish Line and come to a stop, your body will cool down quite rapidly and you will need some warm clothes.
DO NOT FORGET YOUR SUNSCREEN, the sun can be extremely intense in the early hours and the last thing you want is a red face and a burnt nose on your Finish Line photo!
Fill your own water bottle or buy a Walk the Walk bottle on the night!
Water is in plentiful supply at the MoonWalk both on Clapham Common and at our Service Stations out on the route. You will find a service station around every 4 miles.
Our Eco bottle is made in the UK from sustainable material and manufactured using renewable energy, is recyclable, BPA free and dishwasher safe… what’s not to love!
Have a drink on us!
When you cross the Finish Line make sure you use your hot drink voucher attached to your walker number.
You can take this to any of the stalls in the Food Village, we might not be able to offer you champagne, but you can swap it for any hot drink of your choice. Enjoy!
Meet Up Point…
For any ‘Solo Walkers’ out there (remember you are never alone at a MoonWalk!) or you just want a place to meet up with others then head for the ‘Meeting Flag’ situated at the ‘I DID It Banner’ and have fun catching up with old and new friends as you get ready to set out on your challenge!
POP UP SHOP…
Look out for our POP UP SHOPS selling all sorts of goodies including our famous Hoodies… Walk the Walk 30 year Badges… Eco Water Bottles… Bumbags and Bottle Holders… Arm Warmers… Pom Hats… WTW Lanyards… Glow in the dark rings and lots more!
Cash or Card!
Just to let you know that across the MoonWalk we will be accepting cash or cards (no Amex)… So whether you want to buy food, drink, or something from the POP UP SHOP, or you just want to make a donation, we will be taking both forms of payment!
Important Information about Walking Poles!
We just want to mention that Walk the Walk DO NOT allow Walking Poles on this challenge. Albeit unintentional, they can be extremely dangerous and cause injury, when used on busy streets where other walkers can be close to you.
Our Volunteer Marshalls, if they see anyone using Walking Poles are instructed to request any are handed over to the Volunteers, who will then ensure they are returned to the Pop Up Shop at MoonWalk Arena where you can collect them up on your return.
Walking sticks are permitted, and if you need to use any kind of walking aid, please do get in touch with our Walker Support Team so they can ensure that the relevant people are made aware of your needs.
Recovery and Waiting Area…
As you know the MoonWalk Arena is all ‘alfresco’, so we will be keeping an eye on the weather closer to the time, but on returning from your challenge… if you are looking for somewhere to shelter whilst waiting for friends or transport, look for the white tent near the stage, you are most welcome to use it to rest a while or wait for someone.
The MoonWalk Area is in the pink…
The MoonWalk London 2026 takes place under the stars, there will be flags, sparkling lights, and even the stage will be ablaze with that well-known MoonWalk spirit and fun!
Official MoonWalk London Finishers T-Shirts are now available for pre-order!
Celebrate your achievement in style and make sure you secure your commemorative event T-Shirt, specially created by Ella Kasperowicz an illustrator who loves creating playful, colourful and relatable designs. Scan the QR code to pre-order yours!
A little closer to the event, we will email you all the information you need to have a fantastic MoonWalk!
It is worth mentioning now so that you can plan ahead, that only 1 small bag per person will be allowed into MoonWalk Arena. This must hold all your essential items that can be stowed overnight whilst you walk. The bag must not exceed 40cm x 55cm in size. More information on this will be shared closer to the night.
