Ryan Reynolds' gruelling journeys to Wrexham and back in past month

The actor has made a pilgrimage to and from Wrexham

Ryan Reynolds has made way more than just a few gruelling journeys to Wrexham and back in the past month.

While it's clear the back and forth has paid off, considering he and co-owner of the club Rob McElhenney oversaw the club be launched into promotion after a record-breaking season, the success has most definitely come at a cost.

And that cost is the relentless pilgrimage to the small Welsh city and various other locations across the globe.

Reynolds has clocked up over a staggering 18,500 air miles in the last 30 days alone jet-setting around the world whilst still keeping up regular appearances at Wrexham.

Rewind to last month (25 March), the Deadpool star attended the Wrexham women's match and just five days later on 30 March, he flew over to Ottawa - the capital of Canada.

The Canadian-born actor posed for a pic alongside Ottawa Mayor Mark Sutcliffe and Chris Bratty, president of The Remington Group who Reynolds is reportedly teaming up to bid for the Senators with.

In the photo uploaded to the actor's Instagram and Twitter accounts, the trio can be seen stood in front of the City of Ottawa crest with the caption 'Ottawa friends'.

That trip alone amassed to a hefty 3,194 air miles.

We're assuming that the father-of-four then returned home to New York from Ottawa which, if he did, would add some more 425 air miles to the total sum bringing us to 3,619.

Then, less than two weeks later, Reynolds bopped back to the UK to catch the match between Wrexham and Notts County (10 April) adding another 3,691 air miles to the count, bringing the total to 7,310 air miles.

Yikes - that's a lot of jet lag.

Wrexham ended up taking home the victory with a cracking 3-2 result thanks to players Paul Mullin, Jacob Mendy and Elliot Lee.

Guess it was worth the long-haul trip then!

The actor then reportedly 'chartered a private jet to leave Wrexham for New York' after the win just a matter of hours after the final whistle was blown.

He allegedly spent a huge £100,000 to take his own flight from Manchester to Teterboro in New Jersey.

A source told the MailOnline: "Ryan is totally dedicated to Wrexham and the club's success this season; he wants to see them promoted.

"He knows him being there gives the team the support they need at such a crucial point so is putting in the travel time to ensure they reach this goal."

The source continued: "But he's also a family man and given his status, flying via private jet to also be there for Blake and their children is the only viable option."

The trip put on some 3,394 more air miles to his monthly outgoings bringing the current number to over 10,000 in just around two weeks.

Five days later (15 April), Reynolds jetted off back to Canada to pick up an acting award at the Canadian Academy in Toronto.

He shared the proud moment to Instagram saying he was 'gobsmacked and emotional as all hell'.

"Finished in a fancy tux, surrounded by some of the smartest, most innovative Canadian artists — all under one roof," he told his 48.9 million followers.

Five days later (20 April) and Reynolds headed to New York to grab dinner with none other than Taylor Swift - whacking on an extra 490 air miles.

The pair, alongside with Blake Lively, dined at Casa Cipriani in downtown Manhattan after breaking up with her ex-boyfriend of six years, English actor Joe Alwyn.

Not a bad trio to eat alongside at all, but the wholesome night out rounded up the actor's air miles to a staggering 11,194 and he still had some football duties to get through across the pond to his new UK home village which, by the way, only has one Co-op and two pubs.

Two days after (22 April), the actor flew over from New York back to the UK to catch the historic Wrexham vs Boreham Wood match which whacked on a massive more 3,691 air miles.

That's now a whopping 15,155 air miles and - hold on - there's still more.

We're also assuming that the star then went back to New York after the monumental win, packing on another 3,691, which brings his total air miles for the month to a mammoth 18,576 air miles for just the last 30 days.

Talk about a globe-trotter.
