How do I keep track of how many miles I've done?

add remove
This is your challenge, so you can decide how you would like to keep track of your miles. However, we do recommend joining our Strava group and logging your cycles there so you can cheer on your fellow cyclists. You can also connect your fundraiser to Strava or another preferred fitness app, to automatically upload your activity. You just need to log into your account and navigate to ‘My Fitness Activity’ to get set up.
