August – zero routine

As I mentioned in my July recap I was losing (if not had actaully lost) my routine.
Looking back over the walk – it was obvious by the end of January I had a pretty solid routine and was highly motivated.

Nothing, and I mean nothing could stop me from going on a walk, but now the opposite is true. Something feels like it has switched off in ny brain and I need to get it switched back on.

I got a few good walks in during August and did mange to recalim some of my mileage.

Just over 250 miles to go and i have to be honest it seems quite daunting.

Holiday time

Hearing horror stories from friends and family travelling abroad with queses at airpoirts and COVID restrictions made us decide to have a staycation in the UK again this year.

Rather than camping ‘we bit the bullet’ and booked our first AirBNB, it looked amazing online and when we arrived it exceeded all expectations.. although it is a little bit further in the sticks than I had imagined.

We stayed in Scotland just over the border in Dumfries & Galloway, I’m half-scottish with family in Kirkcudbright and like to get up occasionally.

It’s a lovely part of the world and we were so lucky with the weather. I had a good few walks planned but was kind of annoyed that I only really got in one decent length walk (around the Galloway Forest Park.)

September was going to have to count if I wanted to complete the challenge.
