Travel to Tokyo Update

Team Abbotswell are smashing their Travel to Tokyo Virtual Fitness Challenge!

Last weekend, we made it to Rio and this week we have been making super progress towards our next stop which is Sydney in Australia. Only 8,515km now to Sydney!

Here are a few Team Stats…

We have now logged a total of 212 exercise activities!
Together, we have done an amazing 557 hours and 30 minutes of exercise!
92% of us have really enjoyed our exercise!
57% of our fitness sessions have included adults so this means lots of families and staff are getting involved too which is great!

Keep up the super work Team Abbotswell! We are now more than halfway to Tokyo!
