Originally created during the first lockdown of the COVID-19 pandemic, the virtual running and walking group enabled staff and students to stay connected virtually whilst exercising at home.

The group is now well established and uses Teams to chat and reach shared goals. They are currently travelling the distance of the USA’s Route 66, that is a whopping 3.940km. The aim is to complete this distance as a team in the shortest amount of time possible, with individuals logging their KMs from running or walking on the shared group. 

The group is a great way to “meet” people from across the University and stay motivated and focused on good physical health.
