Braintree District Gears Up for Beat the Street Fitness Challenge
It’s a free, interactive game for everyone. People get points and prizes for walking and cycling, and teams earn more points when they travel further.
Teams win vouchers which can be used to get books and sports gear. There are two leaderboards: one shows total points, while the other shows average points. This structure gives all sizes of teams a chance to win.
Beat the Street has been played in many places, even areas outside the UK. Within the UK, it has been played within Jaywick and Chelmsford.
Braintree District Council has announced the game is coming, starting on Wednesday, March 5. For six weeks, sensors will be on lampposts. These beeping and flashing sensors are called Beat Boxes.
Kids in primary school receive a player pack containing a map and a card. Adults can use the card too, while others can get a card from a distribution point. Locations are listed on the website.
The game continues until Wednesday, April 16. It encourages families to be more active, allowing people to explore different spaces through a fun, friendly competition.
