Exercise achievements are something that should be celebrated more and that is exactly what the Sisu Run & Ride posters do. They turn [running and cycling routes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/strava-heatmaps) into abstract artworks that can be displayed proudly on the walls of one's home. From afar the images may look like some strange type of hieroglyphs and in a way they are. And they can only be truly interpreted by one person.

Created by Pete Roome, a developer who works at [Upstate Studio](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zero-proof-functional-spritzes) in London, the Sisu Run & Ride posters came to mind while he was recovering from ACL reconstruction in his knee. Visualizing his [exercise data](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/setgraph), he found that "people really seemed to relate to the idea of presenting their training efforts in a more visually appealing way."
