Leicestershire Run-opoly

Can you complete the board?

A few years back the board game Monopoly started selling regional versions, mainly because everyone in the world already had the original version and they needed something to sell I suspect.

Can you complete the Leicestershire version on runs/walks/cycles before Xmas? If the whole board is a bit of a stretch, see how many sets you can complete? Can we complete the whole board between the group?

Picture attached as the training session pic and will post on the Facebook group. Email me if you still want a copy of it. But here are the "properties" you need to visit.
