Not in Edinburgh on the big day? 

If you can't make it to Holyrood Park on 7 February, you can still join in with the help of the UoE Sport Technogym app. 

Wherever you are in the world, the app is here to support you active wellbeing and help you move in a way that works for you. 

For 2026 we are launching our Edinburgh Medical School - 300 Days of Movement Challenge on the app. That’s 30 minutes of movement on 300 days of the year.  

Even if you can’t join us in person for the Winter Warmer, you can log your 30 minutes of movement, whatever form it takes and from wherever you are.
