**Challenge extended to 30th September - join in now to get us back home this month!**

Help us get to the Sol Pelicanos & back this summer!

It’s time for a summer holiday, so naturally we thought we’d head to the Sol Pelicanos Hotel in the UK’s most popular holiday spot, Spain’s Costa Blanca.

That’s 3,350 km there and back!

Can you help us get there & back before 1st September?

No matter how you travel in the Gym or Pool – run, walk, cycle, swim, row, ski-erg or anything else! – just keep a track of how far you’ve gone each visit & add it to our daily distance board in reception.

We’ll add up everyone’s distances & move our bus along the route, making this a real team effort!

✔️ Open to everyone – monthly members & PAYG users

✔️ Starts 21st July & finishes on 1st September

✔️ You must scan in when you arrive at the centre! ⚠️ No scan, no distance ⚠️

✔️ Whether you swim 25m or run a 10k, add your distance to the board in reception

✔️ Our top 3 attendees (not top 3 distances!) will get an extra treat

Join in from 21st July! It’s a bit of fun to help us enjoy the summer, even if the sun stays in Spain…
