I have joined the Civil Service Charity’s STEPtember challenge, aiming to walk 10000 steps per day which for me is just over 4 miles. There will be days when I can’t do this due to travelling so I will average it out to reach my 300,000 in September.

For my first walk I chose a walk that I hadn’t done before. I started from a local town which involved a walk along a road. I will explore the area differently next time from a different start point to avoid the road.
