Team McBains complete June wellbeing challenge.
We challenged our employees to get moving during the month of June and to take on a group fitness task, the McBains Mission.
Using the My Virtual Mission platform, our Mission was to run, walk, cycle, swim or row to take us on a virtual journey from office to office - Manchester-Thames Valley-London-Athens - and back again, via some iconic landmarks.
We managed to complete the Mission and the ambitious target distance of 10,865.4km on the final day, 30 June - just in time!!
Well done to Team McBains for collectively getting us over the finish line. There were also some incredible individual performances as you will see from our final Leaderboard.
Prizes were awarded to those that placed in the top three in each category, plus those in 1st place each nominated a charity to receive a donation:
