ON SATURDAY our Kick the Kilos challenge officially kicked off.

Going up against 14 other regions to see who can rack up the most kilometres, walking or running, in 12 weeks, we now have 23 members signed up to our group on Strava and are well underway.

Don't forget to log your scores in our Strava app group, and it will pool together with everyone else's scores in that group. The town that racks up the biggest distance overall and per capita wins.

We want to get everyone on the Tweed involved, so sign up to Strava and spread the word.

1. Download Strava from the App store or Google Play.

2. Set up a Strava account with your email address and a password. Select running as your core activity.

3. Once you have an account, click on the three dots in the bottom right corner, 'more'. Click on clubs. You can then click on the search tool in the top right corner and search Kick the Kilos. Find Tweed Daily News and hit join.

Lets get kicking!
