Grizedale College who are currently way out in front towards winning February's mystery prizes (1 for the furthest distanced travelled in the winning college, and then 2 randomly drawn within the college).

Let's get as many people from Lonsdale joining their Strava group in order to catch Grizedale up by the end of the month!

To take part in this new Strava challenge between all the colleges and represent Lonsdale

Background

Each college will have a Strava Club organised by their JCR Sports reps, and the SU will be adding up weekly totals to form a total distance covered for the month which will convert to points and a league table: 9 points for 1st, 8 points for 2nd, 7 for 3rd and so on.

Winner of each month gets prizes which are drawn to athletes in the college, then the college with the most points at the end of the year gets something EXTRA SPECIAL*!

So stick on your trainers or your lycra, rewatch Dame Kelly Holmes' double gold in Athens 2004 for inspiration, and join your college team for fun, friendship and a flippin good laugh!
