'Exercise to the Grand Slams' Challenge - US Open arrival - now we are heading to the Australian Open! All welcome to join us....

Stuart Murray , our Head Tennis Coach, has set all the tennis players a lockdown challenge to collectively take part in the 'Exercise to the GRAND SLAMS' Challenge. The aim is that during this lockdown, everyone should record even the smallest, walk, run or bike ride, to our 'Club page' on the Strava App, so we can see how far the members of the club can travel together as a team.  This is a team effort to show what we can achieve as a community. We have already visited Wimbledon (207.4m) and the home of the French Open - Roland Garros (480.5m) and we reached Flushing Meadow in the US (3338m) this week! Our next target is Melbourne Park to see the Australian Open (10543m).  Let's hope Cam Norrie is still in the draw by the time we reach Australia! Let's support our lone Brit in the singles! 64 Athletes, 444hrs of exercise, 3497m (5629km) .   So members of all sections of the club are invited to join Stuart's exercise challenge and together we can 'travel' the world To join, click on this link , download Strava onto your mobile phone and then 'record' each exercise activity.
