Wow!

I am blown away that this week's Accumulator challenge involved 14 runners, covering almost 1000KM in the process!

Grand total: 918.6K ran, walked and cycled in just 6 days.

Here are the highlights:

Anji got out and about on the bike for an hour a day- the glorious hour I am out of the boot I am suffering in rehab from injury.

Paul got the highest total of the week- 197K which included a massive bike ride from Boldon to Billingham and back, that's over 112K!

Mulubrhan has used lockdown to regain fitness and fall back in love with running and was motivated by the challenge.

Tanya and Debbie have covered almost 100K collectively. Running, walking and guest-appearing in my street as they ran past with Remi the dog.

Louise had a nasty fall earlier in the week and still managed to smash over 30K of running and walking. Get well soon!

Lauren has a poorly knee at the moment so took to two wheels this week instead.

Michael has done loads of walking in the sunshine which is great to see as he's been poorly.

Rachel got loads of walking and running in including a sunny run at Byker Links.

Hannah spotted cute cygnets on a run at Exhibition Park.

Jon got loads of walking in but test ran in a new pair of trainers too.

Rachael got out and about with a lot of walking in the sunshine.

Charlotte beat a few demons getting back on the bike for the first time since a nasty fall.

Kate ran and walked the third-highest total and felt really motivated by the challenge.

Amazing work, everyone. So close to 1000KM! ... next time?
