My Updates
Day 17
Whelp, it's nearly the home stretch, and I'm still chipping away at this challenge every day. The walking has been good for my mental health and has been getting me out of the office for much needed screen-breaks. While I may not have raised much on my personal page (I'm still crazy grateful to folk who've donated), Lyka and I have made really good progress on our Starcrossed team page, so I'm glad the animals will be receiving some assistance as a result of this. I've also taken up Pokémon Go, since Lyka and my sister both play, and it felt appropriate ('Cause animals) as both a walking motivation aid and a way to further connect with them both. My strongest fightin' critter at the moment is a Kilowattrel... as an old-school original 150 fan, I have no idea if that's good or not :p
Day 10
So, as expected, my initial goal of 50km has proven too easy. Now I plan to continue with the challenge and see just how many kilometres I can rack up by October. I'm grateful to the folks who have donated thus far, and I hope to inspire at least a few more contributions.
Day 3
I was worried at first that I would struggle to find time for significant walking during the week (thanks to my 9-5), but using public transport has been really helpful; as has turning my lunch break into a lunch meander :)I may have set my goal for a modest 50km, but I'm thinking I'll be walking a LOT more by the end of this challenge. Plus, I'll be adding some running kms whenever I get to the gym.
