Walking in My Father's Memory, For Everyone's Future

This year, I turn 56. It's a milestone that weighs heavily on me, as it was the age at which I lost my father to a heart condition.

For too long, I've put my own health on the back burner. I'm over 20kg overweight and my physical activity has dwindled to almost nothing. I know I'm walking a path that risks leading to the same destination.

That's why I'm taking a stand—one step at a time. ❤️

I've committed to walking 10,000 steps every day to raise vital funds for the Irish Heart Foundation. This challenge is for me, to finally get my health back on track. But it's also for my dad, and for everyone who has been affected by heart disease and stroke.

I'm walking to raise awareness of underlying heart conditions and to prove that it's never too late to make a change. The work of the Irish Heart Foundation in research, support, and awareness saves lives. They provide the information and support that families like mine desperately need.

Please, support my journey. Any donation, no matter how small, will fuel my steps and contribute to a lifesaving cause. Let's fight heart disease together.

A tougher day...

Thursday 4th Sep
...today. Except Monday I broke up the walks to get the steps in. But today I was working from home all day and walked the entire 10k in one go. I hope the legs hold up for tomorrow. If they do, the rest should only get easier.

3 Days in...

Thursday 4th Sep
...and unlike steps counted here, I keep track every day with a screen shot of my FitBit on Instagram, and according to that I have already done 39574 steps since this journey started.
Many more to come yet.
