I'm taking on the October Dog Walking Challenge

I’m walking 75 miles with my dog this October and raising funds for families affected by dementia. I would be grateful for your support.

An £8 donation could cover the telephone costs of two families seeking support through Dementia UK's free Helpline. £33 could fund an hour with a dementia specialist Admiral Nurse, helping a family with practical solutions and emotional support.

Thank you!

Hit by a cold

Thursday 30th Oct
Actually even though having a cold isnt great getting out and getting fresh air is nice relief

Busy busy busy

Thursday 30th Oct
Been so busy with work, dodging the rain but we have been walking, Harry looks at me and I swear he is thinking another walk? But now the nights are darker he will be glad when he is back to his normal routine snuggled by the fire

Final day in Cornwall

Friday 17th Oct
Its been an amazing holiday but back to reality, even without the walking challenge we would have done the miles.

What a view

Tuesday 14th Oct
Gorgeous walks today in Cornwall the sun was out, and Harry was happy to visit many pets shops ! 

Steep walk

Sunday 12th Oct
Harry the little mountain goat was well away me on the other hand took a couple of stops to catch my breath and take some pics

Holiday means we walk more

Saturday 11th Oct
Harry is loving his walks especially as we are seeing new places 

What a gorgeous view

Monday 6th Oct
Nice little walk up the Warren tonight always seems further than what it is but still another 1.1 miles added

Sunday walks are the best

Sunday 5th Oct
Perfect day for a walk, took Harry to his socialisation class where he gets to walk with all different breeds for an hour, then a lovely walk around where we live 2.5 miles , save to say he is now chilling under his blanket on the sofa 

How windy is it !

Saturday 4th Oct
So today the weather has been shocking and yesterday not really something Harry enjoys

Abit slow yesterday and today only 2.5 miles :-( 

However we are on an hour long dog walk tomorrow that will help with mileage

4 days in Total so far - 5.7 miles

Day 2

Thursday 2nd Oct
Managed to get home on time and smash another 1.6 miles, tomorrow we are mixing it up as Harry has a nail appointment to get to , so will be a longer walk 

I hate technology

Wednesday 1st Oct
So first time using Starva and it thinks I've walked 7 miles 🤔  no late home from meant a shorter walk than I intended

Anyway 1.6 miles done 
I'll log properly once i hit 8 miles so the count is correct.


It will soon be the 1st

Saturday 27th Sep
Time is going so quick
Thank you for all the donations it really means alot 

Prep is key

Saturday 20th Sep
So Strava has been downloaded and new smart watch purchased. Harry is having his lazy days in September ready for plenty of walking in October 

Determined

Sunday 7th Sep
Haven't done a challenge for a while, but October is the perfect month, I'll be in Cornwall on holiday so plenty of sites to see while getting the miles in
