Fishponds man has walked every street in Bristol after epic year-long challenge

A night shift worker has managed to walk every street in Bristol on his weekends off. People may think they know their city but walking every street requires stamina, determination and “decent footwear”, advises Simon Kosciow.

The 55-year-old, who lives in Fishponds, said: “I called it the ‘A to Z challenge’ and I did it just after lockdown to get some fresh air and fitness. I did it in 51 weeks, I wanted to do it in under a year and I just made it.”

Due to Mr Kosciow working nights he completed his walks at the weekends, starting as early as three in the morning sometimes. His only companions were a pair of Skechers, Ribena, an app called Relive and an Ordnance Survey map app.
