Envireau Water's Virtual Travels

The Envireau Water Team are avid walkers, cyclists and even yoga lovers!

We aren’t travelling around much at present, so to lighten the mood and challenge ourselves (while respecting government guidelines) we are tracking all our daily exercise routines and carrying out our own ‘virtual travels’ instead. We want to see how far we can get and say hello to a few clients and suppliers along the way, that we are unable to visit in person at present!

What are the rules?

The first thing to be clear about is that the team are adhering to the government’s guidelines of one form of outdoor exercise per day. After all, we must all #stayhomesavelives.

Second to that, we acknowledge that any form of exercise does wonderful things for our immune systems and not to mention our mental health and as we’re a social bunch what better way to keep spirits high than doing something collectively.

As some light-hearted fun, we are tracking all our daily exercise routines to work out the total distance we have travelled as a team. It’s a combination of walking, running and cycling outdoors to the equivalent distance travelled, to any other form of exercise performed indoors such as yoga, Zumba and lifting a few weights!

From Monday to Sunday each week until the lockdown is lifted, our team will be tracking their exercise. Who knows where we will end up?!

Week One:

We’re off to a flying start and have travelled over 271 miles this week! Phil and Penny were our front runners having travelled nearly 40 miles. While the exercise which took us the furthest was walking, accounting for 192 miles!

Our virtual travels took us through the Welsh borders this week and on the way we said hello to Princes Gate and Radnor Hills!

We are also learning a lot about what team like to do to keep active which has included gardening, Salsa and trampolining!

Week Two:

Travelling further than we did last week with 320 miles, we virtually passed through the Scottish borders on route to say hello DIAGEO, Ironside Farrar and Eden Springs.

Walking appears to be a popular pastime at Envireau Water having accounted for 140 miles. This week it was Lee who reached the top of our leader board having covered 42 miles!

Week Three:

We are keeping the miles high, having collectively travelled 247 miles in Week 3! This took us on a virtual trip to the Lake District, where on the way we said hello to Aggregate Industries, Princes Food and Hanson.

This week Joe topped the leader board with 32 miles!

Week Four:

In our last week we travelled 170 miles, taking us on a trip down south to Kent. On the way, we said a virtual hello to Charltons Farm, Selwood and Elis.

Phil and Penny took the lead again for the last week, covering a total of 44 miles between them!
