Cycling has been a lovely breeze in this heatwave! Much needed!

An extra Mile !!! Its a wonderful campaign sadly come to end today. Encouraged me to use public transport and more walking than I do usually. Thanks a lot.

I ride five days a week between Whitchurch Village and Stockwood

Having had surgery on my wrist at the beginning of July I have had to find new ways to be active this month. This included lots of walks, some indoor cycling and more recently some gentle running. It has certainly been a challenge but one I have enjoyed and embraced!

This month with the challenge I am averaging more steps than last month. I am enjoying the weather and getting out seeing so many beautiful places. Thanks for the challenge and I hope I can continue travelling sustainably.

Great to use trains and walk for an arty day out with friends

Despite being taken down by COVID in the last week, the travel challenge has been a welcome reminder to still try and get outside for a (socially distanced) walk every day. Fresh air definitely helps blow away a bit of the brain fog!

4.5km run today around Thornbury, hard to get motivated but I did it and the cooler weather certainly helped.

On Thursday evening we travelled to Bath to see friends. We had planned to cycle to Temple Meads and then get a train, then a bus up to Lansdown, but given it was such a lovely evening, I suggested we cycle all the way on the cycle path and tackle the big hill up there. At 30 weeks pregnant this feels like a huge achievement and I'm super proud of myself! The free wheel down the hill to get the train home was a lot of fun too! 19 miles in the bag!

I did a home visit to a patient this morning by walking, google maps said 11 mins walking each way and so much nicer to get out in the fresh air than use the car!

So we went over to the caravan with both bikes and the new tag a long. Phoebe the dog loves it and we did lots of miles. Only took the car out once the whole week.

Moving my body has drastically improved my mental health!

Instead of getting into the car and going to the main shopping centre, I walked to the local shop! So nice to be in the sunshine instead of being stuck in a car.

big up Gary, massive legend

I ride a tricycle as my age and balance problems make this safer than bike I used to ride

how do i stop strava tracking me when i get in my home?! help me

connecting activity from Strava directly saves lots of efforts. Well-done. I hope others enjoying this as well :)

The bus took a diversion this morning - some new sights to see out of the window!

Been cycling to work now for several weeks as an alternative to the car or catching a bus. Feel much better physically! Alert for my shifts, clearer minded and prepared. Also a big bonus is avoiding any parking charges. If you can, choose cycling or running to set you up for your shift.

Lovely to walk through Bedminster and see all the new street art. Feeling great about walking more.
