Get the whole family active and earn points

It’s so important for our children to develop a love for physical activity when they’re young. That’s why Vitality Kids offers ways for families to get active together. And earn points at the same time.

Even more exciting ways for kids to get active and earn points

parkrun

Saturday mornings are all about quality time as a family. And what better way to do this than by starting your day with a run or walk with parkrun? Register the whole family with parkrun and you can each earn 300 points for completing a parkrun at any one of the more than 50 locations in the country, including children between six and 18 years old. All you need to do is make sure your parkrun profiles are all linked to your Discovery memberships and print out your barcodes to scan at the end of your run or walk.

Swimming

If you’re a family with children aged six years and older that loves to swim the Midmar Mile every February, you can earn up to 500 points each for crossing that finish line at the end. You can always sign up together. Each participant will earn up to 5 000 points for completing this event. You can capture your details after the event to earn your points. In fact, as a family you can now earn Vitality points for all kinds of outdoor sporting events.

Gym workouts

Kids over twelve years old can join Virgin Active or Planet Fitness and earn up to 100 Vitality points for every exercise session. If your child is a member of Virgin Active or Planet Fitness, you can email their ID number, gym membership number, branch name and contract start date to vitalityinfo@discovery.co.za. You can also do this by calling the Vitality call centre on 0860 99 88 77.
