We would normally be welcoming our French friends from Cité Scolaire Rene Pellet to RNC, and would later visit them in Lyon. With that not possible this year, we decided to take on a virtual trip by walking, running and cycling the distance instead.

Story

Usually at this time of year we would be welcoming our French friends from Cité Scolaire Rene Pellet to RNC, and we would have visited them later in Lyon as part of our Erasmus research project into wellbeing for people with visual impairments. Although we cant visit each other in person this year, we thought we would travel to Lyon virtually with a bit of leg-power from RNC staff, students and families. Participants are asked to take a daily walk, run or cycle and then submit a record of the kilometres they have covered that day. The daily cumulative total will take us along the 1154 kilometre route to Lyon, from Hereford.
