1 PUT A JACKET ROUND THE TRUNK OF A TREE

Turn a tree into a strange simulacrum of a very tall, wiry-haired person by making it wear a coat. Reflect on how it makes you feel. Then wonder what on Earth has happened #minichallenge1 to you.

2 TAKE A (N)ICE SELFIE

Stomping frozen puddles is fun, but the connoisseur of winter walks knows the real art lies in detaching and air-lifting the largest sheet you can and being photographed #minichallenge2 with it.

3 HAVE A BREW WITH A VIEW

Fill a flask with hot chocolate, sweet coffee, warming Bovril, hearty soup, slippery noodles or your own recipe for a steaming elixir – take it somewhere pretty sharing a photo. Because is there anything finer? #minichallenge3

4 CAPTURE SUNRISE AND MOON-GLOW

With dawn and nightfall both at their most accessible, capture a pair of pics of these celestial bodies looking their best on walks this month – fiery at dawn and gleaming #minichallenge4 in the dark.

5 PUT UP A POSTER

Help spread the good news about walking – download and print a poster or flier from www.walk1000miles. co.uk/posters and show us where you put it. An office? Club? Class? Surgery? School? Shop? #minichallenge5

Surprise us!
