The Nijmegan Challenge

Last week, soldiers from 2, 16 and 30 Signal Regiments took on the Nijmegen Marches in the Netherlands – the world's biggest multi-day walking event.

Covering up to 160km over four days, it's a tough challenge that really puts your endurance and sense of humour to the test, alongside military teams from across the world, creating a brilliant atmosphere.

If you miss challenges like this, or you've been thinking about coming back, why not get in touch and see what rejoining could look like?
