Seattle’s Department of Transportation has been inviting folks from around town to take part in the Walk Bike Run Challenge all summer long. They’ve also been keeping track in how each neighborhood is doing as they walk, bike or ride public transit to get in shape, reduce greenhouse gases, and save money on gas and car repairs.

So far, tiny Fremont is holding its own against other nearby neighborhoods…
