Walking, wheeling, cycling, running – they all count!

Counting your steps
There are a variety of different fitness apps/trackers that you can download on your mobile phone, if they don’t already have one. This is important so that your actual steps match up with what you upload onto the Paths for All website.
It should be noted that the platform allows conversions such as inputting miles covered, or even yoga workouts, which then transfers into steps!
Steps can be manually uploaded. You can also sync any relevant fitness apps with the platform so that step uploads are done automatically.
You can watch the video on the Paths for All webpage to understand how it all works
Prizes
This year, we will have prizes available to the winning staff and student teams. The winning student team members will each receive a £50 voucher from Amazon or Love to Shop. The winning staff team members will each receive a rucksack.
